The Other Side of London
During the last Easter break, I went down to London for a short trip to visit my relatives who came all the way from Brunei for a holiday.
Nevertheless, I had my first visit ever to Canary Wharf, one of the financial districts in London. It was a good experience as the environment of the Canary Wharf area was different in comparison to Central London such as Oxford Street and Piccadilly Circus. The area is home to the world or European headquarters of numerous major banks, professional services firms and media organisations including Barclays, Citigroup, Credit Suisse, HSBC, J.P. Morgan, KPMG, MetLife, Morgan Stanley, and Thomson Reuters.
Below are some of the pictures that I managed to take during my visit at Canary Wharf:
The picture above shows 'One Canada Square', the second-tallest building in the United Kingdom.
Canary Wharf isn't just an area filled with offices, but it has a few shopping centres within walking distances too! With over 240 shops, bars and restaurants, Canary Wharf is the perfect destination for a great day out and an Arts & Events programme of music, dance, comedy, art, fashion and more!
So if you're out and about in London, do visit Canary Wharf as I felt it was a good experience seeing the other side of London. The nearest tube station is 'Canary Wharf', which is on the Jubilee Line (Grey Line).
