Little Venice
Recently voted London’s best hidden wonder, Little Venice marks the point where the Regent’s Canal and the Grand Union Canal meet. Known as Browning’s Pool after poet Robert Browning, the pool sees the annual Canalway Cavalcade each May bank holiday weekend.
Its calm and tranquillity is undisturbed for the rest of the year by gentile trip boats and narrow boat cafés. See if you can spot swans and Canadian geese nesting on the island in the middle of the Pool!
