Greenwich

Greenwich is a beautiful, historic, unmissable area of London. It's where hemispheres meet and royal heritage combines with contemporary architecture. It’s home to the Maritime Greenwich World Heritage Site, London’s oldest enclosed royal park and the Prime Meridian of the World - longitude zero.

Whatever your interest there’s something you’ll love - fabulous baroque artistry in the Painted Hall at the Old Royal Naval College, designer-maker arts and crafts in Greenwich Market, and the beautifully conserved Cutty Sark, the fastest ship of her age. Explore Britain’s momentous naval history at the National Maritime Museum and enjoy the views in a riverside pub. The renowned University of Greenwich has its home here adding a vibrant, youthful atmosphere to Greenwich’s world class heritage and culture.

A short river or train ride away you can discover more at Greenwich Peninsula, Woolwich, Charlton, Blackheath and Eltham.

There’s too much to see in just one day so book into a luxurious local hotel or comfortable B&B and stay a while – Greenwich is always worth a little extra time!
