This central road has been through many incarnations over the centuries, from a duck-hunting ground of King Henry VIII to a Victorian den of vice; a hotbed of activism and social change. Today its period Georgian and Victorian architecture blended with cosmopolitan eateries and boutiques gives this area an elegant, village-like feel that becomes more vibrant at night. Whether wandering the picturesque Regent’s Canal, your secret route to hipster Hackney, picnicking in verdant Highbury Fields or getting old London flavour in Chapel Market, there are always new things to discover. Hop on a bike and explore the pretty Islington backstreets. Stuccoed houses hung with wisteria, quiet garden squares with mature trees, quirky galleries and friendly pubs. 7 Immerse yourself in London’s coffee culture Food & Drink JUST A STROLL AWAY 1 2 T R S E D R 3 UPP Relax with good food and even better company A range of live music venues to choose from 4 5 6 ESSEX 7 8 11 12 9 13 14 15 10 18 16 D 17 R L L E N T ONVI P E 19 CITY R D VE A R Y Cocktail making, perfect for date nights Fine dining experiences ROSEBE 20 You may never travel to eat out again – Upper Street is foodie heaven.

  • London Life Hacks: Culture
    LONDON LIFE HACKS: CULTURE Hi there, my name is Amy Norris and I work as a Study Abroad Peer Advisor and Student Ambassador at King’s College London. I have created this handy guide on culture in London. Check it out for cool recommendations for art, museums, nightlife, music and theatre in London! ART The most well-known galleries in London are possibly the National Gallery and the National Portrait Gallery. These are located on Trafalgar Square, so just a 10-minute walk from Strand campus if you’ve got an hour to kill in between lectures! If you’re into contemporary art, check out the Saatchi Gallery in Chelsea. If you’re more traditional, try the Wallace Collection; situated in a beautiful manor house in Westminster, this is one of the best collections of European art. The arms & armour exhibitions are amazing! I’d recommend trying out both the Tate Britain and the Tate Modern. These are two of my favourite places in the city. It’s a lovely walk down the Thames between the two galleries, or you can hop on the Tate boat! The Late at Tate events are well-worth checking out – you can explore the galleries after-hours, and there’s always music and extra exhibits going on. The Royal Academy of Arts is a fantastic independent gallery – their Summer Exhibition is always one to look out for. Whitechapel Gallery, however, is one of the best public galleries. Recent exhibitions have covered everything from the Guerrilla Girls to Paolozzi. We also have the Courtauld Gallery right next door to Strand Campus in Somerset House – the permanent exhibition includes a Manet, and a van Gogh, and you get free admission with your King’s ID! MUSEUMS It’s no lie that London has some of the best museums in the world, and most of them are free to visit.
