We visited this amazing point of London strictly connected with bussiness.
Canary Wharf is a major business district located in Tower Hamlets, London. It is one of the UK's two main financial centres – along with the traditional City of London – and contains many of Europe's tallest buildings, including the second-tallest in Great Britain, One Canada Square.
It is really impressive building.In this building works 10000 people. I think I wouldn't like to work here.
Canary Wharf is a fantastic modern place but so crowded at lunch break and rush hour..
some beautiful glass buildings!
ReplyDeleteI love them , too
DeleteLovely modern buildings, but I'm like Gosia...I wouldn't want to work there.
ReplyDeleteSo your opinion is the same as mine
DeleteHeaps of glass and I've never seen photos of this area before. Wonder why it's called Canary Wharf?
ReplyDeleteCanary Wharf itself takes its name from No. 32 berth of the West Wood Quay of the Import Dock. This was built in 1936 for Fruit Lines Ltd, a subsidiary of Fred Olsen Lines for the Mediterranean and Canary Islands fruit trade. At their request, the quay and warehouse were given the name Canary Wharf
DeleteSuch tall buildings, I would have to lift up my head high to be able to see the top! It may be nice for holidays but I prefer some places with more greens and nature.
ReplyDeleteIt is very difficult to see the top
DeleteI've been thinking it's been too long since the last time I was in London (late '90s). This really makes me want to return. I wouldn't recognise things. And the last time I was on the Underground was in the early '70s. You could still smoke!
ReplyDeleteMitchell it is high time to visit Poland and London of course. Now it is forbidden to smoke in the undrground..
