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.

Bench opposite the Feng Shang Princess on Regent's Canal

Highlight • Viewpoint

"Slow Horses" is a British spy thriller television series based on the 2010 novel of the same name by Mick Herron. Gary Oldman plays Jackson Lamb, a cunning secret agent who was transferred to a kind of bad bank for failed MI5 employees as a punishment.

Many of the series' filming locations are spread across London. This includes this bank on Regent's Canal opposite the eye-catching Feng Shang Princess Floating Restaurant. Here Lamb meets several times unofficially with the secret service chief Diana Taverner (played by Kristin Scott Thomas).

So if you want to meet up for a secret meeting in a picturesque setting, this is the place for you.

Lion Tazza Fountain, Avenue Gardens, Regent's Park

Highlight • Monument

The Avenue Gardens, located near the Broad Walk, have formal displays of spring bulbs and summer bedding. There are tiered fountains, evergreen hedges and vast ornamental bowls filled with flowers.

The original ornaments in the Avenue Gardens have been restored and some Victorian-style planting has been re-introduced to provide year-round interest.

The Avenue Gardens were originally planted by John Nash as the Broad Walk with eight rows of trees. The trees did not thrive and were inspected by various experts, including the Victorian garden designer William Andrews Nesfield, who put forward a design for new formal gardens.

In the centre of the Avenue Gardens, stands a large circular stone bowl supported by four winged stone lions. Known as Griffin or Lion Tazza, often called the Lion Vase, it was installed by Newfield in 1863. It was later repaired during the restoration of the gardens (1993-1996.)
