π¬π§ The Only Picnic Spot in London's Financial District π§Ίπ³
Summer has finally arrived in London! Today, my colleagues and I enjoyed itsu sushi boxes at the newly reopened Finsbury Circus Gardens - the perfect lunch spot under lush, shady trees. Pure bliss! πβ¨ Who would've thought London's busiest financial district hides this 400-year-old secret garden? Once known as "Moors Fields" in the 17th century, it was London's first public garden. After a decade-long nap as a Crossrail construction site for the Elizabeth line, it's finally awakened after a 2-year transformation! ποΈβπ· π³ 12 new tree species added πΈ 13,000+ plants & 6,000 bulbs planted πͺ Freshly laid lawns & seating areas πΏ Boosted biodiversity - breathe in that fresh air! This is the ultimate urban escape from the City's hustle. Whether you're working nearby or visiting London, don't miss this little oasis of calm. π Why You'll Love It: Perfect for al fresco lunches (grab food from nearby eateries) Great for quiet reading breaks π Instagram-worthy historic garden vibes πΈ Rare green space in the concrete jungle π Location: Right in the heart of the City - easy to reach during your lunch break! #UrbanOasis #HistoryMeetsNature #FinsburyCircusGardens #HiddenGem #GardenWalks #CityOfLondon #LondonGreenspaces #HistoricGardens #LondonPicnicSpots #QuietLondon
