London was built on its river trade and for centuries masted galleons sailed up the River Thames to deposit their silks, spices, coffee and tea in the city wharves of Rotherhithe. When business boomed with the British Empire, the original wharves no longer did the job. So The Docklands were born a mile to the east, and on completion in 1802, the purpose-built West India Docks were the envy of the world.
Redeveloped in the 1980s as a rival business district to The City, the Docklands are now booming with the ExCel Exhibition and Conference Centre in the Royal Victoria Dock, easy access to London City Airport, the tallest building in Britain (the 800-foot, pyramid-topped Canary Wharf Tower) and Foster’s award-winning Jubilee line tube station.
Facing Canary Wharf across the Thames, Rotherhithe (the older docks area) is a fascinating mixture of past and present with luxury riverside apartments separated by medieval smugglers’ inns (the Angel and the Mayflower).
Discover them on foot via the Thames Path which stretches from Hilton Docklands to the Tower of London. At Butler's Wharf, watch Tower Bridge open from the terrace of the Conran restaurant, Pont de la Tour, and feed your mind at the Design Museum next door.
Rotherhithe’s Ecological Park is a five-minute walk from Hilton Docklands Riverside. It has a sports ground and woodland, while nearby in the two-acre Surrey Docks Farm you can take a walk past working beehives, greet pigs, chickens and goats or even sit in a Mongolian yurt if the mood takes you. A much larger 40-acre park is Mudchute Park and Farm across the river on the Isle of Dogs. You can go horse-riding there.
See the crown jewels and learn about the bloodthirsty history of the Tower of London, or step across Tower Bridge to discover cutting-edge design in the glass-fronted Design Museum.
The Museum in Docklands in West India Quay, Canary Wharf, is one of just two of seven Victorian wharves (the rest were bombed in the war) where unrefined sugar, rosewood, rum and teak were unloaded in the 19th century. Today, it houses the stories of the people and industries which made the Docklands.
Canary Wharf is fun in summer during Wimbledon when massive screens show all the latest action to the crowds and the Canary Wharf Group organises outdoor music concerts in Cabot Square. One night a week (usually Wednesdays), the glass-domed East Wintergarden in Jubilee Park screens movies for free. Cabot Hall hosts regular comedy and live music nights.
Otherwise, the many theatres of London's West End are a 20-minute boat ride up the Thames from Canary Wharf to the Savoy Pier.
