  • There and Back Again: Mobilising Tourist Imaginaries at the Tower Of
    There and Back Again: Mobilising Tourist Imaginaries at the Tower of London Matthew Hughes Ansell 2014 Dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MA in Cultural Heritage Studies of University College London in 2017 UCL INSTITUTE OF ARCHAEOLOGY ‘Those responsible for the brochure had darkly intuited how easily their readers might be turned into prey by photographs whose power insulted the intelligence and contravened any notions of free will: over-exposed photographs of palm trees, clear skies, and white beaches. Readers who would have been capable of skepticism and prudence in other areas of their lives reverted in contact with these elements to a primordial innocence and optimism. The longing provoked by the brochure was an example, at once touching and bathetic, of how projects (and even whole lies) might be influenced by the simplest and most unexamined images of happiness; of how a lengthy and ruinously expensive journey might be set into motion by nothing more than the sight of a photograph of a palm tree gently inclining in a tropical breeze’ (de Botton 2002, 9). 2 Abstract Tourist sites are amalgams of competing and complimentary narratives that dialectically circulate and imbue places with meaning. Widely held tourism narratives, known as tourist imaginaries, are manifestations of ‘shared mental life’ (Leite 2014, 268) by tourists, would-be tourists, and not-yet tourists prior to, during, and after the tourism experience. This dissertation investigates those specific pre-tour understandings that inform tourists’ expectations and understandings of place prior to visiting. Looking specifically at the Tower of London, I employ content and discourse analysis alongside ethnographic field methods to identify the predominant tourist imaginaries of the Tower of London, trace their circulation and reproduction, and ultimately discuss their impact on visitor experience at the Tower.

  • The Rembrandt Hotel London
    The Rembrandt Hotel London – Visitor Information There is so much to do and see in London to suit all interests and age groups. There are numerous galleries and museums all over central London as well as popular shopping districts, like Oxford Street, or boutique areas, like Covent Garden with its street theatre. Listed below is a small sample of things to do and see. Further individual information can be obtained from our concierge team in advance or when you are resident. Email [email protected] for further information or procurement of advance purchase tickets. Near by Opposite the hotel is the Victoria and Albert museum and next to that is the Natural History and Science museums. A 5-minute walk from the hotel are Harrods and Harvey Nichols department stores, plus a mirage of other boutique type shops as well as those along and off Sloane Avenue and Kings Road. These are all easily reached on foot from the hotel. The local architecture of Kensington is interesting for a stroll, or run up to Hyde Park where Kensington Palace is located and the Princess Diana memorial fountain is sited. Tour Buses If it is your first visit we would recommend an open-top bus tour, which will give you a very good introduction to London seeing all the main sites, both historical and modern. These tours take approximately 2 hours nonstop. Tickets can be purchased at our concierge desk on the day; the two bus companies collect and drop off outside the hotel. Tickets are valid for 24 hours; there are about 80 stops on these tours and you hop on and off as you like exploring what takes your interest.
