More Gherkin / Swiss Re / 30 St Mary Axe photos

Woman taking photos atop the erotic gherkin, which won a major architectual prize this weekend.

A ladder sits within the as yet unfurbished office blocks located on one of the higher levels of the Swiss Re (gherkin) building.

Thousands of people (me included) at the domed part of the Gherkin, looking at the spectacular views.
Absolutely amazing! On my next London visit I will definitely try to schedule a short stop at this marvellous building.

But you can certainly walk right up to it - it's just as good from the outside as it is from the inside I think, except of course the view from the top is excellent.
