    This is a nice area, I remember when I was working near Russel Square, I used to go for a walk here on my break and relax in that park 👌🏽

    London is a world-class treasure trove of history and architecture. In fact there is no such “class” - London is totally unique. It beats all our American cities, even NY and Boston (which I love), with a big Churchillian walking stick !
    I hope the Brits appreciate what they’ve accomplished, in keeping London, old and new, so awesome. There will truly always be an England, as long as there is London.

    I used to do almost exactly the same walk every day for five years when I was a student at the London School of Economics and lived near Russell Square. As you can imagine, it brought back many many memories! Thank you.

      So did I but only for 3 undergraduate years and not necessarily every day if I didn't feel like it! Thankfully not much has changed, apart from the tiramisu phone boxes and changing the name of the Russell Hotel (sacrilege).

    Woohoo 30k subscribers. Russel Square a most place to visit for Sherlock Holmes TV series fans. The show starts right there. Side visit would be Russel Square tube station which is an older station and it is in classic red colour. Take Care Chris and Sandra of Canada.

    Bonsoir Sanpo, une belle vidéo comme d'habitude. L'hôtel Kimpton Fitzory est superbe. Très original la reconversion des cabines téléphoniques, ce serait dommage de les voir disparaître du paysage londonien. Notre premier séjour en Airbnb à Londres était à Holborn. C'est bien triste de voir cette ville quasiment vide, mais j'espère que c'est pour le mieux, pour que l'on puisse y revenir bientôt. 👍🏽😉 Take care Sanpo

      Merci Frantz. Je suis d'accord que la cabine téléphonique rouge est emblématique ici, c'est donc une excellente idée de garder la cabine téléphonique de cette façon. J'ai pris un café à partir de là et c'était délicieux. J'essaierai leur tiramisu la prochaine fois!

    Lol, when on Russell Square you guys always miss the most important address. President Hotel was the first London residence for one fairly "unimportant" band, in the spring and summer of 1963, when they moved down from Liverpool to London. Of course, I am talking about The B......, ;) .

    상가는 화장실 은행들 마음을 좋을 수가 있어야 장사가 되지여. 그래서 보도도 조금 넓찍하고 다른 사람에게 어깨를 맞다면 그것도 약점이지요. 또 아무리 잡상인이 끓어도 다 알아서 잘 찾아가는 성격이 있어요. 조금의 여유는 주어야 장사하기 좋지요. 하하. 좁으면 약점이지요.

First you shoot the left side (from the right pavement), then the right side (from the left pavement). There is nothing wrong with that, that's how I get the full experience.
