This is a photograph I’ve posted before, but never unedited. One of my favorite parts of London is the South Embankment of the Thames. It offers a walk that can take all day if you choose. Almost every iconic view of the city can be seen, while eateries and museums are the perfect rest stops. A fabulous book flea market and a graffiti skateboard park add in a little more flavor to a walk that gives you quintessential London.
London will always have a special place in my heart. With it’s old soul, bustling energy, and nooks and crannies, there is alway something to explore.
