Borough
is a district steeped in history. Its background as a lively hub of trade and
commerce is still recognised throughout London to this day. The district is
also renowned for its modern, stunning architecture that often stands shoulder
to shoulder with the significant cultural landmarks of the city’s past.
Visitors
to the area will immediately be aware of the presence of The Shard, London’s
tallest skyscraper, which is a unique fusion of British and Qatari development.
However, the district is most well-known for its iconic Borough Market – a
historic wholesale and retail food market thought to date back as far as the 11th
century. Having become something of a paradise for food lovers, enthusiasts and
aficionados, the market is only a short walk away from the South Bank’s
Millennium Bridge, an iconic city landmark built to celebrate the passing of a
much more recent epoch.
Away
from the glitzy, centre-stage attractions of Borough, this inner area of London
has also garnered a reputation as a vibrant centre for arts, also housing a
number of nightclubs, bars and plush cocktail lounges.
Borough
is situated on the southern banks of the River Thames, accessible via London
Bridge and Southwark Bridge. Although it’s an area of London, it is, in fact, the
northern part of the bigger and official London Borough of Southwark. Only a
short journey away from the City of London, visitors will be ideally located
for exploring historic attractions such as the Tower of London and St Paul’s Cathedral.
Those
staying in the area additionally benefit from being conveniently close to
Waterloo Train Station and London Bridge Train Station, the latter of which is
nestled away almost directly beneath The Shard. Borough Tube Station offers
access to other areas of the city via the Northern Line, and London Bridge Tube
Station provides access to the Jubilee Line.
Borough
is one of London’s most fascinating areas for those keen on learning more about
Britain’s naval and nautical history. Only a few minutes’ walk from Borough
Market is The Golden Hinde, a magnificent replica of the vessel Sir Francis
Drake captained during his circumnavigation of the globe.
Only a short step further alongside the Thames will lead visitors to another relic of a later era of British naval
history. The HMS Belfast is an imposing museum ship that offers tourists the
chance to explore one of the few bombardment vessels that still remain from the
Normandy Landings.
Those
more keen on enjoying Borough’s numerous galleries and exhibitions will find
them lined along Bermondsey Street, a lively hub of all things kooky, quirky
and cultural. The London Glassblowing exhibition, the White Cube art gallery
and the Fashion and Textile Museum provide the area with a range of
well-regarded cultural institutions. South Bank is also close by and offers the
chance to visit one of the city’s most renowned art galleries, The Tate Modern.
Understandably,
many of Borough’s top restaurants and places to eat can be found near Borough
Market. Once a centre of traditional and local cuisines, the market has since
evolved and now reflects London’s diverse, cosmopolitan culture with an array
of restaurants and food stalls offering cuisines from all around the world.
For
those keen on getting a drink in a truly unique location, The Shard’s Gong bar,
located on its 52nd floor, is an ideal spot for anyone who enjoys
glamorous, unparalleled views with their drinks. Gong is a sleek Asian-themed
bar, known to be the highest bar in Europe.
With a large selection of cocktails and a luxurious infinity pool, it has
an irresistible appeal to any visitor.
London
is a humming tourist destination for travellers and holidaymakers from all
around the world. In order to accommodate all the visitors that the city
attracts, there is a range of different forms of accommodation on offer.
However, when it comes to places to stay in London, it is no secret that
serviced apartments offer potential guests more space and privacy.
Each
serviced apartment features kitchen facilities and regular housekeeping
services, while the vast majority also include living rooms and separate
bedrooms, providing guests with the chance to relax away from London’s vibrant
and dynamic streets.
