London has many famous parks in the center of the city in zone 1. However, some of the less crowded and more spectacular ones can be found further afield. One such park is the Greenwich Peninsula Ecology Park, located close to Canary Wharf the O2 Millennium Dome. Here, you’ll discover an abundance of wildlife as well as have spectacular views of the Thames River.

Shoreditch has come a long way in the last 15 years. Once upon time it was simply known as the entrance to Hackney. But now it is known for being trendy, creative and funky.
