London’s streets host the biggest urban art collection in the world. Its creative and welcoming environment makes not only local but also international artists inspired to create. While wandering around in the city you’re likely to stumble upon the most amazing street art: from huge painted murals to small drawings on walls; from nature-themed pieces to strong political statements; London has it all. The works are as diverse as the city’s neighbourhoods, so make sure to explore different areas.

When you think of markets in London, probably the Camden Market comes to your mind. But there’s plenty more! Take the Brixton Village Market for example. Located in a district once deemed as the best place to shop in London, after some ups and downs it has been revitalised and transformed into a hub of London’s culinary diversity. Hosting over 130 independent traders it’s a beautiful melting pot of languages, cultures and flavours. It’s also on the rise in the street art scene in the city. (Photo by Clare Whiting on Unsplash)

The up-and-coming South London district Peckham is one of the most exciting places to go for an adventurous day. Its charm combined with the diverse, multicultural and dynamic environment it facilitates, culminated with it being voted the best place to live in London in 2017. Since the arrival of Frank’s Cafe, Peckham jumped into the trendy London neighborhoods scene. Try a selection of Persian dishes in Persepolis, discover the Kurdish iteration of a burger in Nandine and get lost in Nigerian flavours in one of the restaurants in the area. For the passionate foodies and cool vibe seekers, more palette- and eye-pleasers can be discovered on our Peckham discovery trail.

What comes to your mind when you think of London’s architectural landmarks? Tourists’ favourite Big Ben? Vertigo-inducing The Shard or The Gherkin? Or maybe iconic Tate Modern Gallery? They all contribute to London’s unique cityscape, but if you want to see a breathtaking example of modern architecture, go to the Barbican estate. Built in the City of London between the ‘60s and the ‘80s, it’s a prime example of British brutalist architecture.

London has one of the best blends of historic and modern cultures, enabling visitors to wander from one century to another, yet still being present in the times we live in. In this context, the City of London, also known as The Square Mile, has a very special place. Mesmerising architecture, London’s layered past, Roman ruins and walls – just a few examples of what there is to discover.

Camden is nothing short of an urban paradise. Home to amazing restaurants, pubs, street markets, music venues and, of course, the famous Camden Market. All of those are absolutely amazing, but there are many more things to do and see in the area. Explore the quieter side of the area by strolling around Regent’s Canal or get a little lost (on purpose!) in the adjacent Primrose Hill neighbourhood to get a breathtaking view of London or even watch the sunset over the city. This whole area is, for sure, one of the most instagrammable places in London, but this is also one of the cases where the pictures don’t do justice to what you’ll see…

London is a sprawling metropolis with lots of green spaces, but there’s more than just Hyde Park! So here it goes, The 5 Best Parks & Green Spaces in London. Each one of these parks make for the perfect spot for an al fresco lunch or for a stroll to recharge your batteries. If you’re feeling extra playful, check one of our London Discovery Games.

The name originates from the beautiful Crystal Palace it once housed, but unfortunately in 1936 it was destroyed by a fire. Nevertheless, it’s an amazing park that has some of the world’s oldest life-size dinosaur sculptures, created in 1854. This explains why the sculptures have such an odd look – and even questionable accuracy! There’s also a maze and a pair of sphinxes. We love this place.

Neighbourhood: Crystal Palace

Hampstead Heath offers amazing panoramic views over the city skyline, it almost feels as if you’re outside of London. You can find majestic displays of British flora and fauna. You’ll find families, locals and animals as opposed to tourists in this park. It is also home to a true hidden gem (yay!!) that is free to visit, the Kenwood House. During the (warmer) summer days you even take a dip in the lake here!

Primrose hill is located north from Regent’s Park and it has a character all of its own. It used to be a place where duels were fought and prize-fights took place. However, these days it offers a great view over London’s skyline and makes for the perfect spot to have a drink and relax looking down the hill.

In the early 1200s this used to be a Royal Park. The British monarchy introduced the red and fallow deer here, enclosed in the park. Nowadays it’s still under the ownership of the Crown but it is open to everyone.  It’s the perfect spot to soak up some sunshine, learn about the flora and fauna, row (yes!), cycle or go for a walk. And yes, the deer still roam free!

Neighbourhood: Richmond upon Thames

Greenwich Park used to be a hunting ground. Greenwich is a village very well known for its maritime history. The view from up the hill is one of the most famous views over Thames and London skyline. Perfect for soaking up the sunshine or a picnic!

Start your day bright and early at Caravan in King’s Cross. With an outdoor terrace overlooking the charming Granary Square, this is the perfect spot to wake yourself up with freshly roasted coffee accompanied by a quintessential English breakfast!

Stroll along Regent’s Canal to Camley Street Natural Park. This park is an urban nature reserve in the heart of King’s Cross. Standing boldly by the canal, abandoned warehouses have been transformed into hip bars and restaurants.

Worked up an appetite? Head down to Camden Market, where you can discover some of the most diverse and expansive street food options the city has to offer. With more than 1,000 stalls selling everything from music to fashion to art, this is THE place to grab lunch, watch the city go by and find that trinket you always wanted at a bargain.

Take a break from the hustle and bustle of Camden Market and wander up the road to Primrose Hill for a jaw-dropping view of London. We definitely recommend renting a bike at Santander Cycle Hire to explore Primrose Hill and Regent’s Park. Alternatively, take your time and enjoy the lush greenery by foot. If you’re going into Regent’s Park during Springtime, don’t miss Queen Mary’s Rose Garden – it’s stunning!
London has many more parks & green spaces to offer – check out more of them here.

Enjoy a walk along the river from the City of London to St. Katherine Docks Marina, a quiet hidden gem behind Tower Bridge. Grab a pint at the Dickens Inn here, an 18th century warehouse transformed into an alehouse and pizzeria. Add it to your list of unusual things to do!
After a refreshing beer, continue to Wilton’s Music Hall, the world’s oldest and last surviving grand music hall. Maybe even go in for a show? Yep, this is among our best London tips!
