As much as I love exploring new cities, I feel I have barely scratched the surface with my home city of London. A few weeks ago I visited The Barbican which, astonishingly, I had never visited before. I would have remembered. The Brutalist building is distinct and, to some, considered an eyesore.
It is a fascinating place – despite the harsh concrete – especially when we discovered its secret garden conservatory. I love discovering hidden gems, don’t you? I’m sharing my visit with you on week’s City Tripping. I can’t wait to read all about your adventures.
Thank you to Leona at Wandermust Family for covering for Cathy (MummyTravels) while she was off exploring Helsinki and Tallin. Here are her favourites from last week.
