This street represents the best of the East End. Steeped in history, buildings telling the story of immigration in the area and celebrates the hustle and bustle of our wonderfully diverse community. Great Bengali curry and Jewish Beigals sit side by side! Street buskers, artists, markets and plenty of people watching.

Well what do you say! So British...Royal jewels, Beefeaters, Ravens and by the iconic London Bridge and parts of the Roman walls of the original Londinium. Bethnal Green is in Tower Hamlets named after our local tower!

World famous Christopher Wren designed. survived the Blitz and just so iconic. Great day out is to catch the central line from Bethnal Green a few stops to visit it, walk across the Thames via the Millenium bridge (wobbly bridge to us locals) and visit the Tate Modern or Shakespeare Globe on the South Bank. Then mosey down the South Bank past the buskers and fairs towards the London Eye. Then take a 'flight' on it and view our great city from the air.
