This trip is definitely different from the rest. The route was dominated by architectural marvels. Skyscrapers were everywhere and this surely must be one of London's busiest commercial routes. I am more of a nature lover and love the scenic splendour London offers their travellers. The quiet residential neighbourhoods dominated by open spaces and lush green parks are a connoisseur's delight. This route, as you mentioned, is truely captivating and traverses through the vibrant heart of London's commercial centres. That building on Camomile Street (29:52) was absolutely ravishing. Who would have thought of encountering such a magnificent building juxtaposed with modernity? The building with a portrait above its sign board of Princess Louise (47:35), the Duchess of Argyll silhouettes the surroundings splendidly. Do you know what that business there is about? Whoever named this building or business after her sure has an affinity for history (like me☺I guess). Finally, I see some competition building up with a few more people taking bus rides and shooting them but no one comes close to your way of taking viewers on these wonderful trips. As I said before, I enjoy your videos immensely and see them as stress busters. Keep bringing more and more lovely trips as we traverse this beautiful city of London.
