The
area around Greenwich is rich in history and culture, ranging from
the meridian line at the Royal Observatory to the Cutty Sark. There
is also an abundance of green open spaces – The new Ecology
Park, created by the Homes and Communities Agency, Greenwich Royal
Park and Blackheath Common to name just a few.
The choice for shopaholics is vast. Colour and variety create an
inviting atmosphere at Greenwich's market while Canary Wharf now
has three shopping malls. With over 200 shops, restaurants, cafés
and bars, it's now a real alternative to the West End for high street
favourites and individual boutiques. |
