London

Greenwich

Greenwich is south of the River Thames, and is known for both it’s maritime history (being home to the Royal Maritime museum and the Cutty Sark) and Greenwich meantime, with the meridian line running through the the Royal Observatory.

Greenwich is a pretty place, with a relaxed vibe with lots of green areas for you to walk round or just watch the world go by, and at the top of the park, the views across to Canary Wharf and the rest of London are spectacular.

This bench was located just by the Maritime museum.

Wembley

I had never been to Wembley until 2022, when I was lucky enough to have the chance to go and see Coldplay in concert. I could talk about how amazing that was all day, but we also managed to have a quick look around the area prior to the concert (mainly due to a slight shoe malfunction). Wembley has been host to many concerts but is mainly known for football. I found the bench below on one of the main streets with a view through to the stadium, placed for who I imagine to have been a big football fan in the past.
