This day was one of the most majestic and colorful areas I have seen in London so far! First what we did was start at King’s Cross and walked to Regent’s Canal. Next, we went to Word on the Water, which is on the canal next to the stairs down. We walked around Coal Drop, which has historic roots with dashes of modern shops and restaurants. Lastly, went around King’s Cross station to see all the interesting shops and the British Library.
Regent’s Canal, one of the most charming scenic places I have seen so close within a city. When I first walk up the bridge overlooking the canal, the things I was seeing looked like they were straight out of a camera. The color balance was perfect, the lighting was amazing, and barely any people surrounding the area. The boats on the dock were a rainbow of colors and charm, that felt like a bunch of hidden treasures. I’ve seen many people post about the Regent’s Canal, but none described its beauty as well as they should have. The water was so smooth, you could see the outlines of the clouds reflecting on it, which made the dark green water to have what looked like painted white spots on it.
On the Regent’s Canal, there was a boat that stood out immensely. It was the only boat to be a business and a mini performing area on half of it. The greenery around it makes it blend in with nature around it. Once you enter, you atomically smell the fresh and new air. It is surrounding by wood shelves, rugs, and rows upon rows of books. The combination of wood and books is something very difficult to describe, but makes an environment feel historical and charming. Throughout the store, there was also windows to view the outside, and your head was almost on the same level as the water! I went right as the place was opening, so people were just starting to come, but it is something you should plan on walking through!
Around King’s Cross, I was distracted right away from the smells coming out of doors. The buildings were modern and innovative, but the ground, there was restaurants that allowed perfect relaxation. While sitting on the grass right in front of a food place, you could hear the traveling and ripples of a stream. It was perfect relaxation music, which combined perfectly was the sun beating down on you in this grass area. The way the sun was coming down showing amazing reflections from a building to a ground. The geometrical and perfect lines of squares that beated on the ground was definitely cool and satisfying to discover. It reflected on the wall across from it, and on the ground. The darkness became integrated with the light partially.
