Hands down, the most popular attraction at King’s Cross are the fountains at Granary Square. The 1,080 jets are individually controlled and lit, providing hours of entertainment and photo opps.

On a sunny day, the square morphs into an urban beach, with kids of all ages dashing through the jets, and lookers-on enjoying the spectacle from a dry distance. The fountains are open daily and are on during daylight hours.

Great spot for hanging out on a sunny day, also plenty of food and drink options around — especially on a Sunday, where there’s a market on nearby.

Regent's Canal at Camden Market

Highlight • Historical Site

Visiting Regent's Canal is like entering a hidden world. From the colourful collection of narrowboats in Little Venice, it continues through Regent's Park, where it is overlooked by the enormous aviary of London Zoo. In Camden Town, it passes the craft stalls and quirky clothing shops of the famous market, a centre of London's alternative culture.
