Over the past few years
east London has been going through an evolution, transforming
itself from the capital’s depressed dark side
to the new celebrated darling of the area.
In just 12 years Canary Wharf [map]has
been transformed from derelict docks into the modern business
centre it is today - an ambitious project which has attracted
attention from all over the world.
Millions of pounds are also being invested in other
areas of east London making the area as a whole into
a honey pot for the suits, the creatives and the media
savvy.
This section of the website covers the areas within
the E1 – E18 postcodes including Whitechapel,
Hackney, Mile End, Bow, Isle of Dogs, Leytonstone and
Walthamstow.
As a whole the area is known for cockneys, pearly kings
and queens and jellied eels - if this is the east London
you want to explore you’ll still find plenty things
to keep you entertained.
However as well as retaining the links to its past,
east London is also moving with the times and now has
several museums, art
galleries and attractions to visit.
It is also making its mark on the social map with growing
number of chic restaurants and trendy bars to keep the
new influx of young professionals entertained.
You’ll find east London a diverse and vibrant
part of the capital by just scratching the surface. |
