This destination isn't for everyone. But If you are interested in the history of World War II, the Churchill War Rooms should definitely be on your list of stops after covering the most popular attractions of London.
You've probably seen movies portraying this underground bunker where PM Winston Churchill spent a good amount of time while London was under siege from the air. They have kept the bunker as much as possible looking like that era including all kinds of memorabilia such as maps and charts with military data on them. The bunker is not huge so a short guided tour will not take a lot time out of your day.
