A walk in East London

Finally a day off to take a walk in London. We got out our deck of London walk cards and chose two walks close together in East London. The first 'landmark' was the Wesley Chapel and Museum. The museum wasn't open today as it is Sunday. John Wesley, the founder of Methodism, began his movement here in 1738.

Statue of Wesley.

This is Bunhill Fields which is across the street from the chapel. Writers Daniel Defoe, William Blake, and John Bunyan are buried here. Thousands of people have been buried here before it was closed.

We went to a park called Finsbury Circus. This is one of the buildings surrounding the park circle.

In the park was a large lawn bowling area with one guy practicing.

Another view of the park.

A pedestrian street where there was a market in the street. However, we got there about 5pm and the stalls were being packed up. Darn, usually we can find a great treat at these markets.

This is Saddler's Wells, London's Dance House where ballet, Flamenco, opera, and other types of dance are performed.

These are the posters of what is coming up at Saddlers Wells.
