Sky Garden

Sky Garden London A popular attraction in central London, you can enjoy the views of London for free by booking in advance. The top-floor rooftop garden on the 43rd floor is full of plants, forming an oasis hidden in the city, which is refreshing and relaxing. The atrium has a seating area with a sofa for resting. Remember to make a reservation in advance, I saw a month earlier and ran out of seats, and finally booked the restaurant to go up for free. The viewing area has a bar and restaurant, where you can sip food while admiring the view of London #September Good Places 2025 #London
