Sightseeing

My favourite time to go to see Cutty Sark is when the sun goes down and the ship lights up, it is beautifully in the centre of Greenwich right on the River Thames. It is never busy during the weekday but during the weekend it can, to avoid the crowds go in the morning. A little bit about Cutty Sark: It is a British clipper ship. Built on the River Clyde in 1869 for the Jock Willis Shipping Line, she was one of the last tea clippers to be built and one of the fastest, coming at the end of a long period of design development, which halted as sailing ships gave way to steam propulsion.

Parks & Nature

This is by far my favourite place to go to in Greenwich. You get to breath in the fresh air, get away from crowds, see dogs running around, visit the meridian line/Royal Observatory, and the best part, a view of London. Go there just as the sun sets - the views are breathtaking.

Shopping

This shop is incredibly unique. It is a great place for second hand "junk". You can get a cool table and chairs, record player, antique glass bottle, you never know what you may find! There is also a cute cafe in the back of the store where you can sit to have a cup of tea. They are also dog-friendly!
