Great Connections

Over the years, transport has been thriving through its regular underground services and buses. They can take you to and from all across London. The Victoria and Northern Lines are popular options for getting the main attractions. If not, the rail lines offer regular services to Waterloo station to link you to the majority of England and the north with ease. Also, you can reach Oxford Circus in an astonishing six minutes. Vauxhall is home to the American Embassy, with its stunning modern architecture by firm Kieran Timberlake.

 

Attractions

There are multiple independent businesses offering clothing, gifts, and food that people really like. Lots of pubs and restaurants, such as The Canton Arms and Dirty Burger, have proven to be very popular for their high-quality menus. If you are into flowers, then the New Covent Garden Flower Market is a perfect option for those occasions when you need a bouquet of flowers, whereas visiting the Tate is the cause for an excellent day to gaze at work by William Blake and Francis Bacon.
