3 best spots to watch the sunset in London without the crowd.  There’s no denying that when the sun is out, London is a much more vibrant place! However, London is extremely crowded regardless of the season and the sunset experience is always nicer when it’s less crowded. Here are my 3 favourite sunset spots in London: ✨Butler’s Wharf for Tower Bridge (pictured): the less crowded side of Tower Bridge and equally as nice! ✨St. Thomas’s Hospital for Big Ben and Westminster Bridge: a beautiful garden over summer with roses ✨Greenwich Park for River Thames/ Canary Wharf skyline: there is a gate below the Royal Observatory that many people tend to miss. This location is a lot less crowded than area on top of the observatory hill Have you been to any of these viewpoints? —————————- 📹: @dennesychicken #visitlondon #londonsunset #timeoutlondon #londonviewpoints #summerinlondon #ilovelondon #londonbylondoners #bestvacation #londonvacation #londonforyou #girltraveler #girltravel #girlsthatwander #londonbylondoners #londonreels #beautifullondon #toplondonphoto #london_city_photo #thisislondon #londontrip #londondiaries #londonlifeinc

Oh hey summer! You finally decided to show up! 🥹 I am showing you my favourite place to see the sunset in London. 📍Butler’s Wharf is never super crowded and there are benches along the Thames you can sit and enjoy the sky changing. You can’t wait a view of Tower Bridge like this.

My favourite locations in London to enjoy the sunset… when the sun comes out that is 🫠 With the news that the UK will have the wettest summer in 100 years, some of us may flee overseas but some of us can embrace any sunny days we get ❤️ My favourite places to enjoy the sunset for those who love a quieter spot to: ✨ Butler’s Wharf for Tower Bridge (pictured). A lovely and quieter place to enjoy the sunset ✨ Greenwich Park to enjoy the London sky line - the park has so many vantage points and there’s always a quieter spot ✨ St. Thomas’s Hospital gardens for a view of Big Ben What is your favourite sunset spot? ———————- 👗: @emilyandfin PR product 📹: @dennesychicken #londonsunset #towerbridge #londonviewpoints #thingstodoinlondon #visitlondon

Nestled on the south bank of the River Thames near the iconic Tower Bridge, Butler’s Wharf is a captivating blend of history and modernity.

There is plenty to do around Tower Bridge (Butler’s Wharf Pier) which is next to one of the world’s most recognised tourist icons, Tower Bridge. It is also next door to the Tower of London which offers a thousand years of history in just one visit

Past: Shad Thames used to have the largest warehouse complex in London. It was known as Butler’s Wharf and was completed in 1873 when Britain was at the height of its imperial power.

It served as one of the largest tea warehouses globally, playing a pivotal role in London’s trade of tea, coffee, and spices

Whether you’re a history enthusiast, a foodie, or someone looking for picturesque views along the Thames, Butler’s Wharf offers a unique experience that seamlessly blends the old...

Am 20.07.2018 waren wir im Londoner Stadtteil St Katharine´s & Wapping wo auf gegenüberliegenden Seite vor dem Buttler´s Wharf diese Mega Yacht festgemacht hatte.

Der Mirror widmete dem Ereignis eine ganze Seite in seinem Blatt. Hier die deutsche Übersetzung:

"Milliardär Spurs Besitzer bringt "Bond Schurken" Superyacht als 321ft Boot auf der Themse nach London.

Milliadär Joe Lewis hat seine Superyacht im Bond-Bösewicht nach London gebracht und die Zuschauer mit offenem Mund auf der Themse gelassen.

Der Besitzer von Tottenham Hotspur beauftragte die atemberaubende 321ft Superyacht, deren Bau in Deutschland drei Jahre dauerte.

Während die Superyacht mit dem Namen Aviva normalerweise in den tropischen Gewässern der Karibik zu sehen ist, wurde das atemberaubende Schiff am Sonntagmorgen in Butlers Wharf in der Nähe der Tower Bridge gesehen."

Die Londoner sahen zu, wie die glücklichen Passagiere auf ein kleineres, passendes Schnellboot stiegen, um an Land zu gehen.

Im Mai wurde das Schiff vor Fallmouth in Cornwall festgemacht.

Das Mammutschiff war beim Bau geheim, und so wenig ist über das luxuriöse Interieur bekannt.

Es ist bekannt, einen großen Tennisplatz zu haben und kann 16 Gäste beherbergen.

Herr Lewis mag den legendären Londoner Fußballverein besitzen, besucht aber selten die englische Hauptstadt.

Der Milliardär verbringt seine Zeit am liebsten auf den Bahamas, wo er neben dem ehemaligen James Bond-Schauspieler Sean Connery lebt.

Es wird angenommen, dass Mr. Lewis in der Wohnung über das Roman Arms Pub in East London aufgewachsen ist.

Mit 15 verließ er die Schule, um im Café seiner Familie als Kellner zu arbeiten, und steckte nur 6 £ pro Woche ein.

Anschließend eröffnete er Geschäfte im West End unter dem Namen Tavistock Banqueting und eröffnete Themenrestaurants für Touristenbesuche.

Lewis entwickelte dann den Beefeater, den Cockney, den Caledonian und den Hannover Grand.

Die Nolans hatten ihre erste Live-Show im Hannover Grand.

Der Mogul verzweigte sich sogar in die Tourismusbranche, verkaufte Souvenirs und führte Bustouren durch, die die Leute bei seinem Geschäft anhielten lies. .

1979 verkaufte er das Geschäft für 30 Millionen Pfund und ging als Steuerexil auf die Bahamas.

Danach ging er in den Devisenhandel und wurde...

One of the greatest dining experiences I’ve ever had! From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere was breathtaking — the view alone could make the evening memorable, but then came the food, which somehow managed to outshine it. Every dish, crafted by the amazing Sanshake, was a masterpiece — perfectly balanced flavors, beautifully presented, and clearly made with passion. And the service? Absolutely exceptional. Susanna went above and beyond to make sure every detail was perfect, adding such a personal and thoughtful touch to the evening. This is the kind of place that turns a simple meal into a memory...
