Granary Square

On Sunday 4th April 2021, I and my sister went to Granary Square, an area with two rectangles of water, seating areas and lots of people. In this article, I will be sharing my review on this place.

 What is Granary Square?

Granary Square is a tourist attraction in London, which is a public area in the heart of King’s Cross.

What did I like about Granary Square?

  • The public square was set out in a unique way with water and seating areas. 
  • It is great for sightseeing.
  • It is quite nice to be near the water and enjoy the fountains.

What didn’t I like about Granary Square?

  • On sunny days (like when I went), it can get pretty crowded so beware of that.
  • If you do not want to get wet in the fountains, stay away from the water!

Would I recommend it?

Yes, I would recommend it but it is not a must-go place for me because even though it has a few distinctive features, it wasn’t too spectacular.

This was my short review or diary entry about Granary Square. These are my opinions about this place. Make sure to check out my other articles. 

Thank you for reading, and have a lovely day!

Word-On-The-Water

I love nature and I love books so on Sunday 4th April 2021, I decided to go to a special bookshop on the water. However, was this the perfect combo?

 What is Word-On-The-Water?

Word-On-The-Water is described to be a ‘quirky bookstore on a canal barge offering indoor & outdoor shelves for a wide variety of titles’.

What did I like about Word-On-The-Water?

  • The canal was very beautiful, especially when it was sunny.
  • There were seating areas so you could sit down.
  • It is quite a creative idea, and a good place to relax and chat to your loved ones near the canal (there were also more areas above the canal to sit and relax too).

What didn’t I like about Word-On-The-Water?

  • The pavement next to the canal was quite narrow, so it is very easy to fall into the canal if you are not careful.
  • The bookshop was quite crowded and you can’t really enter it.
  • It wasn’t very accessible, so I did not buy any books.

Would I recommend it?

No, I would not recommend it because even though the idea is creative, it was quite cramped and not too impressive. At the same time, it can be quite dangerous to go near the canal where there are no barriers.
