Tips from locals
Very close to the old city of London and the financial district takes 20 mins by bus and has the spitafields market offer a wide range of eating and drinks as well has retail outlets
For me this area of London is perfect to know the most important business center in the world, know its architecture that is spectacular and each one more different.
This building was completed in 2004 for Swiss RE. The second largest insurance company in The World. It is now one of the icons of the London skyline. It is not the tallest building, but its 41 floors has captured the imagination of the public
Standing 180m tall at 30 St Mary Axe is the towering London venue known as The Gherkin. With its striking architecture, designed by the world-renowned Lord Foster.
