If you love travelling and have never seen London, then you are missing out on a lot. From luxury to simple and beautiful natural locations, there are many things that you can enjoy in this big city.
So, today, I will be sharing a new town location with you. Here, we will be talking about Greenwich. It is located on the south bank of the River Thames. The area is rich in the historical roots of England and has a beautiful and natural scenic view for travellers.
To spend your whole day in this small area, you can find many options to enjoy your day. From scenic riverside walks and a view of the River Thames to getting a relaxing experience on a spa day Greenwich, the town has everything for you. So, now I will share my experience and my recommendations to spend a quiet and joyful day in Greenwich London.
To have a day off and enjoy it fully, you must rest well and give yourself a treat, and without a relaxing massage, your holiday is incomplete. So, for the spa day Greenwich, I booked myself a Swedish massage at Meridian Spa. In Greenwich, this spa was the best option for me. As I had a short trip to Greenwich and was running tight on my budget, the pricing of Meridian Spa suited me best. They have a very calming and inviting look to their spa. Along with the massage, I also took a peptide facial from their spa. My experience was very good; the staff was lovely, welcoming, and super friendly. With the level of the services and the pricing, I think Meridian Spa is the best spa to try in Greenwich.
Local Fitness Clubs And Gyms
As I was getting my treatments at the spa, the staff also mentioned that they have a fitness club of their own. It is always nice when you get good recommendations from the locals of the area just to stay safe and make the right choices on your trips. I didn’t try their fitness club, but as I was walking down the street, I spotted their gym. Just like their spa, they also have many options in their fitness category. They have a gym and offer Pilates, HIIT sessions, and yoga classes. If you come to visit London and are looking for fitness classes in Greenwich, then you can try Meridian Fitness. Their range of services and affordable rates will really suit you. Even if you are travelling, you should not skip your training, and at Meridian Fitness Gym, you can complete your training and continue with your day.
What kind of trip is complete without the food from that area? So, on my trip in the afternoon I visited the Old Brewery in Greenwich. The pub was a mix of vintage and modern ambience. I enjoyed their beer along with the most famous dish in London. Yes, the fish and chips. Next, I booked my table at the restaurant Market Brasserie for my dinner. The food was amazing. The restaurant had open and wide windows from the ceiling to the floor. They offer a scenic view of the river. So, if you want to enjoy your dinner along with the flickering rhythm of the river, Market Brasserie should definitely be visited.
After my small meal at the pub, I went for a long and relaxing walk in Greenwich Park. The town is very active and social in the space, but in Greenwich Park, you can easily meet nature with silence. The park is very big and the view from the top of the hill, overlooking the Thames, the view was breathtaking. If you enjoy greenery like me, then a bright sunny day at Greenwich Park should definitely be on your list for your next trip to London.
Greenwich market is a famous spot for shopping in that area. The market is also accompanied by street food stalls outside the area, where you can enjoy street food along with your shopping. The Greenwich’s market had everything from clothes to jewellery and even antiques. I must say that you should shop for your gifts from the Greenwich market.
Next, my stop was at the Royal Observatory of Greenwich. There, I visited the prime meridian line and the Flamsteed house. I enjoyed a good time of astronomical facts and history all rooted in that area. I also tried the great equatorial telescope in the observatory. Then, in the end, I booked a space show at their planetarium, which was amazing.
On your trip to London, I know you must have picked a very famous town or city to visit, but you should definitely try the Greenwich area. It truly inspired me with its rich mix of history and natural scenic beauty with Greenwich park and the river and other amazing points. From spending a spa day in Greenwich to having delicious meals, this area of London should be explored and praised more. So, I hope you have enjoyed reading about my simple and very short trip and experience in Greenwich, and I wish you to have an even more exciting and beautiful experience in this small town.
