In case you missed out during the London Olympics in 2012, the Orbit at the Olympic Park – or the ArcelorMittal Orbit at the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, to give it its proper name – re-opens on the 5 April. This tower cum sculpture rises up over the Olympic stadium giving commanding views of the Olympic Park and surrounding area. The views aren’t quite on a par with those from the Shard but it is a good way to see the stadium and this area of East London.
