Walking loops in South Bank, London

The concrete is the point. The National Theatre's raw brutalist slabs glow warm at dusk, and the river walk between Waterloo and Blackfriars is one of London's genuinely great stretches — skateboarders beneath the undercroft, booksellers along the wall, the Tate Modern's turbine hall pulling you inside like a gravitational field. Across the water, the city's skyline keeps changing, but the South Bank holds its ground with stubborn, beautiful weight.
