Solitude

London

Trafalgar Square, full of statues, fountains, old sculptures with background stories. The national museum stands tall at the top of monumental steps. The square is packed with regular people and street performers of all kinds.

Going around Trafalgar Square, leads to Leicester Square. I can tell you that I completely fell in love with it.

There's a statue of William Shakespeare in the middle, with fountain like water spraying out of the ground at intervals. There's green grass in the park, people relaxing before continuing on with their day. There's movie theatres that surround the square, old and new, if there's ever a major premiere in London, it's here in this square.

Just beyond its barriers is its china town. There's this big gate, welcoming you and it is a place where artists, writers, entrepreneurs live. It's a place where I've always wanted to live.

Then there's the London eye, standing tall and proud just like Canadians own Leviathan. Just behind the London, is the River Thames which looks out onto Parliament.

Parliament itself looks so much like a castle, even more than BuckingHam itself. With its tall towers such as Big Ben, the massiveness of it as a whole and it's intricate designs on the outside walls.

I fell in love with London.

There's so many different cultures and nationalities it's amazing. It's a place I was glad to tick off my bucket list and maybe go back again someday.
