Interesting places to visit in Chislehurst during your holiday

One of the main attractions here is the Chislehurst Caves, a labyrinth of man-made tunnels thirty metres below ground. These caves were once used as an air raid shelter in the Second World War, and later as a venue for live music with artists such as the Rolling Stones and Jimi Hendrix performing here. Today you can take a guided tour through the mysterious tunnels for an adventure that the whole family will love.

Further afield from Chislehurst is the English Heritage site of Eltham Palace, a ten-minute drive away. Eltham Palace dates back to the 14th century and is the residence where Henry VIII grew up. It is interesting today for its Art Deco restoration which makes it a fascinating place to visit.
