Top 5 Most Beautiful Places in London

5. London Eye



Some things in London look more spectacular during the night - the London Eye fits right in with this concept for me. The addition of the sparkling soft blue lights on the trees gives The Eye a romantic, hazy feel - perfect for late night dates of sightseeing! 

4. Hyde Park



In the summer, Hyde Park is swarming with Londoners and visitors bursting to walk along the river, have a picnic on the grass or take out a pedalo in Hyde Park - one of London's most famous parks. Hyde Park has also held concerts and other public events that make this a real hot-spot in London! 

3. London Bridge



Another landmark subject to the enchantment of increasing beauty after night's shadow engulfs London. London Bridge lights up in dazzling blues and whites giving it a powerful and important look. Although London Bridge is also beautiful in the day, the contrast of the red night sky against the bridge's white stone walls make this landmark an incredible and captivating sight.

2. Camden High Street



As soon as you step out of Camden's Underground station onto the high street itself, it feels as if you've regressed through a time vortex as the 80's signature punk rock vibe is pulsating through each shop, stall, person and sound that finds its home in this lively part of London.

1. Primrose Hill



Sitting at the top of Primrose Hill guided me into having a moment in my life where I just took a step back from the outside world of worries about friends, work, school etc. as I engulfed myself into my own mind and just thought 'wow' for a minute and felt overwhelmed with an incredible sense of awe. 

At night and on top of the hill, you can see over most of London and watch the skyscrapers and landmarks switch on their twinkling lights. Watching this makes it seem as if the whole world has lit up for the night and created a sense of peace and being unified as everyone on top of the hill watched this spectacular event together.


Introduction to 'Reviews from London'

Reviews from London


Who am I?

Hi! My name is Charlotte and I live in London - a not so subtle hint to why this blog is called 'Reviews from London'! 

I've lived in London all my life and think it's a beautiful, vibrant but sometimes absurd city of which I thought it be about time I shared stories, reviews, funny happenings and really anything I've experienced while living in London! 


What is this blog going to include?

Well, that's a good question! As I've already mentioned, it could really be anything that excites me, interests me or fascinates me. This could range from film reviews to daily happenings I've occurred. I want a blog to help note all my thoughts and ideas (and perhaps maybe even a cheeky vent sometimes!) and a place for me to be able to write freely as that is a passion of mine! 

How frequently will I blog?

It completely depends on how much I am experiencing! I hope quite frequently as I will try to write as many entertaining pieces as possible in a week!



Let's get started!
