也許很多人都不知道哪裡是所謂的"the City of London"?
實際上,它是一個倫敦的經貿中心,區域南方從Blackfriars至Tower Hill,北方至Liverpool街,Barbican.

One reason i want to introduce this area is because it's beautiful shining lights in all time.So,if u want to find a romantic place to go in night time...then u can comsider taking DLR to Westferry station(this part also is finacial area),n form there walk to riverside(5 mins),sit down n enjoy the silent,flaring night view like below this pic,or take a short walk along the riverside track.There also have one or two coffee shops u can sit inside.
我會想介紹這裡的一個原因是因為從這裡可以看到日夜閃爍不停的炫麗燈光從各金融大樓中漫射出來(有點像香港的夜景,如果你去過香港的話 應該知道我的意思吧).所以如果你想找到一個羅曼蒂克的看夜景地點...那麼 你可以考慮看看搭DLR至Wesferry 地鐵站(這裡也是金融區),然後從這裡走到河岸(5分鐘),再坐下來好好享受專屬於兩人的寧靜,動人的夜景,如同以下照片所示,或者沿著河邊走一小段路....那邊也有一兩家咖啡館可以坐下來喝咖啡聊天歐!

當我第一次看到這棟建築物時,我馬上聯想到一座相似的建築物-Agbar tower.它是位於西班牙巴塞隆納一棟33層樓高的塔樓.由法國建築師Jean Nouvel與西班牙公司b720 Arquitectos合作設計,Dragados負責建造.完工於2005年六月.

你不覺得它也很面熟嗎?是的,它是龐畢度的姊妹作(與其中一位設計師相同)
Pompidou,Museum of Modern Art,Paris,1971–1977.
It was designed by Italian architect Renzo Piano,the British architect couple Richard Rogers and Su Rogers, Gianfranco Franchini,the British structural engineer Edmund Happold (who would later found Buro Happold),and Irish structural engineer Peter Rice.

8.The last thing i want to say is about the feeling when i walked in the bank area in the evening.It's like im standing inside "Matrix" movie!Very weird ...n funny!!
8.最後我想講一件事,關於夜晚時分走在金融區街道裡的感覺.....歐!那真像是走在電影"駭客任務"一般!!非常的奇妙...而且很有趣!
This is the pic when i walked there,maybe my camara too light,n the moment not many people walked pass...but,the busy walking tempo,all wear black long coats...It's"matrix"!
這是一張當我行經路口時所照的照片(當時約晚上六點半吧),但也許我的相機燈光調太亮了,而且當時剛好沒太多人行經...不然,那種匆忙的走路步調,還有幾乎所有人都穿黑色風衣的感覺,(那裏風大又剛好是秋天)...簡直就是"駭客任務"再現!
