Meet Winter Londonland.
The holidays for many are the most wonderful time of the year, and I am one among many to hold this true to heart. I was blessed with the opportunity to see London in the heart of the season during a business trip last year, and the feels are so live. From the markets to the lights to the filled pubs (although they're usually always filled), it was an amazing experience that I hope to share with loved ones in the future. Check out some of my favorite adventures below (& more in my photog tab):
1. Markets
From unique gift finds to delicious grub & drinks, you've got to stop by one (or all) of the markets open during the season.
At Hyde Park Winter Wonderland, an amusement park + Christmas market fusion, you'll have no shortage of rides & eats to fill your heart's delight. Plus, a stop by Harrods isn't too far off!
2. Ice Skating
The scenery at Somerset House & the Natural History Museum make for gorgeous skating backdrops.
3. Shopping & Strolls
If you're looking for a row of stores to explore while basking in the holiday spirit, hop off the tube at Piccadilly Circus and make your way down Regent Street.
Stray a little off of Regent Street to Bond Street for this view!
4. Warm up at the (or outside of the) pub
Walking through Leadenhall Market always feels like you're walking back in time with its old timely charm.
