Sightseeing in London: Docklands I

After Hong Kong, the Docklands in the east end of London is the most sucessful property development project in the world. Bombed and left derilict after the Second World War, this old harbour district of London became the new financial hub of London in the late 90s, housing many HQs of famous international corporations and banks.

The architecture there is stunning.








Canada Tower (centre) is the tallest building in Europe, next to it, HSBC headquarters, and Citigroup
Even statues are more intimate together than I am...
