One of the relatively new addition to the London skyline is The Shard, which is an 87 story building. It is currently the tallest skyscraper in the European Union and the second tallest structure in the UK. The building looks like a glass shard, hence its name.
Architect Renzo Piano designed the structure to look like a spire emerging from the Thames. He stated that he was inspired by the railway lines found near the site, the masts of sailing ships, and the London spires as depicted by the 18th-century painter Canaletto. It is not just a modern architectural marvel the Shard is also designed to be energy efficient. It has a heat and power plant that runs on natural gas. Fuel is turned into electricity while the heat emitted by the engine is utilized to provide hot water for the entire building touristtube.com.
While the Shard looks spectacular from the ground, wait until you get up to its top. Found on the 72nd floor, the View from the Shard provides a different perspective of London. There are three viewing platforms on the 69th floor and an open air deck on the 72nd. On a clear day, visitors get to see up to 40 miles from the view deck. The Shard tickets allow visitors to stay in the viewing platforms for as long they want.
When you are in the View from the Shard, you will have unrivalled view of the city.
