Thames and London Town walk
I love this Thames and Town walk route as I lived near Whitechapel for sometime. I do enjoy some sun shine while I walk. But we all know how nice the London weather is !!!
Let us start around Tower Bridge or St. Katherine Docks, Marina
Walk thru St. Katierine way and circle around Hermitage Basin to enter Wapping High Street and walk along till you hit the Prospect of Whitby Pub (oldest river side Tavern / Pub).
Walk along Wapping Road, Glamis Road and wonder why Shadwell Basin is still there (just for fun) and take the small right to Thames Path via King Edward Memorial Park. You will get the Thames view soon and walk along till you hit the Jardin's Road. Cross the "T" shaped and walk towards Narrow Street.
Do enjoy the view from Breadstreet Kitchen & Bar /Limehouse. You can try a bit of de-tour via Horseferry Road to view Limehouse Basin and come back to Breadstreet also.
Once you are near the Dundee wharf, you will enjoy the view of skycrapers and walk along to reach Canary wharf via Westferry House & Northdock.
The distance of the walk will be around 2.7 to 3.1 miles based on the de-tours. else, it will come around hardly 2 miles.
I would recommend the walk for afternoon to evening. You can also take the DLR to enjoy the garden of London Barrier or Thames Barrier or Thames Barrage. (DLR from Westferry to Pontoon Dock).
Or you can walk around Isle of Dogs or SouthDock or Milliwall outer Dock to explore dining options and look around skycrapers or glass house architecture.
