For Fun, Relaxation
& Pampering
During your LHR layover, be sure to
explore the new T2: The Queen’s
Terminal, if time permits. One of
the centerpieces of this amazing
new terminal is the Slipstream by
renowned British artist Richard
Wilson. This “near-abstract”
sculpture is inspired by vapor trails
left by planes. Wilson created the
massive sculpture—the longest
permanent sculpture in Europe—
to welcome visitors to Terminal 2.
His silver work of art is 230 feet
long and weighs 85 tons (77
metric tons)—which can be a bit
intimidating when it is suspended
overhead. Even if you don’t have
time to exit security at T2, you
can see the s culpture from above,
as you make your way through
international arrivals.
ne of the uni ue things offered
at LHR is a selection of beauty
services. Between 6 am and 9:30 pm
daily, you can enjoy more than 100
free treatments at shops throughout
each terminal. For example, you can
receive a skincare consultation or
learn to apply eyeshadow in a
10-minute session at Dior, enjoy a
quick shoulder massage at Cocoon
Beauty Sanctuary or receive a
complete makeover in a 20-minute
complimentary session at World
Duty Free’s Yves Saint Laurent
