A Visit to The Natural History Museum, South Kensington, London.

During our recent trip to the UK we managed to spend some time visiting the Natural History Museum in South Kensington. Unlike our previous visits, (this was the fifth visits), there was a long queue outside the main entrance this time. Many visitors were from the E.U. Anyway the visit was worth it as there are so many interesting things inside that you can see and learn. Definitely a day is not enough to go through all the amazing discoveries there. Here is some pictures I took, look at the awesome architecture of the majestic building.

Christmas Markets in England December 2014

This Christmas season I visited a few Christmas markets in England, my favourite one is in Edinburgh. I guess it’s because the market is very easy to stroll through and it was not as crowded as the one in Hyde Park, London. I ended up buying quite a few wooden ornaments which I like very much. We also tried out the various European Christmas foods. The Christmas market in Edinburgh is a plus point because of its location, it is near The Waverly Train Station, and the background is the stunning Edinburgh Castle and it is right in the heart of town, Prince’s Street in front and Prince’s Garden is where the Christmas market was.

Winter Plant In England

The winter garden in England is quite bare compared to other seasons, but still I find it very interesting to explore on the cold winter day. I took this opportunity to walk around and observe what plants can survive the cold weather and also to see the condition of the garden. We came across this beautiful red berry plant and it does remind me of the Christmas season and the other picture is what most gardens look like at this season, still there is some greenery to be enjoyed. These pictures were taken in the Country Park of The Pollok Garden, Glasgow, Scotland.
