About this Event
We will explore historic Primrose Hill, one of London's prettiest "urban villages", and its magnificent park: from the top of the hill you can enjoy clear views of London's skyline.
The area, with its continental cafés and independent shops, has been and still is a highly desirable place to live among the rich and famous, attracting a very cosmopolitan (and sometimes mystical) crowd. On this walk we will discover the stories of many famous international residents from the past: a tragic American poet, a Welsh bard, a German philosopher, the hero of the Philippines and even a little bear from Peru. It doesn't get more cosmopolitan than that!
Today its high street is full of charming independent restaurants and boutiques, but some of these pretty pastel-coloured facades hide haunting stories from the past.
And, as a bonus, you are bound to spot a celebrity or two!
