Two days Thames tour
This section shows the main features of the Gross Max design and the changes in levels in South Bank area. Top right its the map that shows where this section is taken from and bottom right its the design of South Bank Centre that indicates the exact place of the section.
First day was quite windy and a bit cold, however we were lucky with no rains during the long walking day, worth it...Starting with the famous South Bank, the landscape designed by Gross Max, London Eye and the most surprising and enjoyable was to visit Bonnington Square pleasure gardens and & paradise project. That's where we eat our healthy vegetarian launch and looked at the amazing gardens designed in 1990 by TV gardening Dan Pearsons and New Zealand garden designer James Frazer.
I loved the exotic planting and the design overall. I have been living in London for 6 years and i didnt know how many places and squares are hidden between buildings and streets.
Second day started with the Thames tour from Embankment to Canary Wharf, looking at the landscape and architecture around Thames. Arriving at cold streets and 'artificial landscape' of Canary Wharf. the best thing was to visit More London and Potters Fields, both amazing and well designed landscape...
