Walk past the green that previously hosted many Hollywood film premieres in giant marquees, the David Blaine in-a-box episode, plus many other varied events, and you are literally underneath Tower Bridge, keep walking and you are now in Shad Thames, a true delight of traffic-free, cobbled streets full of people, giving you a precise feeling of how the London streets felt hundreds of years ago. 走过去的绿皮书认为，以前举办的很多好莱坞电影首映在巨人marquees ，大卫布莱恩在一框集，再加上其他许多不同的事件，您是从字面上下，塔桥，保持步行和你现在在shad泰晤士，真正的喜悦交通免费，自由，铺着鹅卵石的街道上挤满了人，给你一个确切的感觉，如何在伦敦的街头，感受到几百年前。 It is as if these streets have been restored from long ago, thus delivering to the traveller a wonderfully rich blend of old and new in the same vicinity. 这是因为，如果这些街道上已经恢复，从不久前，因此，提供给旅客一完美的丰富，融合了新与旧，在同一地区。 Circle around Shad Thames, past the ever-changing Design-Museum, and find yourself in 圆左右shad泰晤士河，过去不断变化的设计，博物馆，并发现自己在 Butlers 管家 Wharf 九仓 , a charming quay-side collection of bars & restaurants all overlooking the ，一个迷人的码头方收集的酒吧及餐厅都忽略了 Thames 泰晤士 opposite the equally picturesque St Katherine's Dock. 相反，同样风景如画的圣凯瑟琳的船坞。 Trust me when I tell you that 相信我，当我告诉你， Butlers 管家 Wharf 九仓 is the ultimate in romantic settings. 是最终在浪漫的设置。

Needless to say that the City of London (the financial centre) is absolutely coloured with history, everywhere you go there are buildings proclaiming their 16 th century origins, and they are in abundance. 不用说，伦敦金融城（金融中心）是绝对颜色与历史，无处不在，你去那里的建筑物，宣告其16世纪的渊源，他们是在丰度。
