After a hectic but amazing summer where I knew that school was just around the corner, I wanted to go somewhere that was calm and allowed me to reflect on these amazing travels which I am truly grateful for. I headed down to Clapton Pond to do just that. But was my experience truly reflective?

What is Clapton Pond?

Clapton Pond is a pond in the London Borough of Hackney.

What did I like about Clapton Pond?

• I really liked how there were very few people which allowed my sister and me to fully take pictures and reflect on the past summer.
• The garden was filled with nature which just gave the garden a fresh lively touch. 
• There were also benches and seating areas provided so you can even spend hours enjoying this small intimate pond, with your loved ones.

What didn’t I like about Clapton Pond?

• It was smaller than I expected, but it was okay. At the end of the day, it was still a normal garden which meant that I and my sister got bored after a short period of time, and we headed to the next place nearby, Millfields Park (next article).

Would I recommend it?

Yes, I would recommend it but for me, it wasn’t a place that I could stay in for many hours. 

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