Cape Verde Diving Story I left Cabeco das Tarafes and the scant vegetation of a ribeira, and the road deteriorated to a dusty track. Now I was in open upland dominated by Pico Estancia on the right. It is not a large mountain but in this emptiness I had lost a sense of scale and as it shimmered in the heat it seamed ma...

A Walking Tour Of Labrooke Grove And Notting Hill Carnival The Carnival is the biggest public festival in London, Caribbean in origin and inspiration but increasingly international and multi-racial in spirit and fact. It originated in 1966 as an unofficial response to race riots in Notting Hill in the later 1950s, as a simple street parade with music. In one sense that is still its basis, but now the Carnival is a huge show on the August Bank Holiday......

Notting Hill And Portobello Road Market Explained There are three dimensions to Notting Hill.

A Guide To Islington London The finest aspect of Islington is its rich residue of Georgian streets and squares, and this walk takes you through all the best. But it also has more than its share of local entertainment, a fascinating collection of antique shops and a market, as well as a range of restaurants, pubs and cafes. Islington was poor until it was rediscovered from the 1960s, and some parts still are, but rich and...... Similar Editorial : Attractions in London by Binh Zientek. | Source : Belfast Cheap Holidays
Kensington Palace Explored Go diagonally towards the Round Pond, up the slope, along the Broad Walk and left past the sunken garden which was created as recently as 1909. As you go look through the railings at the architecture. The east front to be seen beyond the statue of Queen Victoria at the time of her accession, by her daughter Princess shows the beginnings of Palladianism, with the central three bays projecting......

A Look At What Kensington Has To Offer This is a mundane name for a prestigious district, but the High Street is the spine of this walk. Kensington Palace is tucked away with astonishing modesty (compared with Buckingham Palace) and is all the more enjoyable as a result. There are fine residential streets, two fascinating small museums of the 19C, a particularly leafy and underestimated park and some good shops. These ingredients add......

A Long Stroll Through Islington Our main route takes us north up Compton Road, with pompous stuccoes mid-19C houses, leading up to St Pauls Road, where you turn right, cross and then turn left into Highbury Grove. Highbury is an entity distinct from both Canonbury and Islington and developed separately from the later 18C. As a development it was never so co-ordinated or complete but some individual terraces are as beautiful as...... Similar Editorial : Best Long by Willard Michlin. | Source : Becoming A Travel Agent
