During the Covid-19 pandemic, we became a community dependent on social media to connect. The only positive effect from this was that we could share each walk, banana bread and hobby we picked up along the way.  Unfortunately, this time that we took to learn from nature got pushed to the side as soon as we got back to our lives and responsibilities. For 2023, let’s aim to take the one positive from covid, our solace in nature. Patagonia has introduced this amazing new app, allowing you to do the same things as Instagram and Facebook! Except we are only sharing our adventures in the little corners of the natural world. No negativity, no work, no trends. it\u2019s a positive insight into what your fellow Londoners are doing with their greenspaces. So without further due, British vogue is going to take you through our top 5 picks of activities to do in London.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1)A run along the river Thames – <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Running is a great exercise to stay in shape. It can be done just about anywhere and is safe, simple and easy to understand. In addition to working every muscle in the body, it is also incredibly sociable. It differs from other types of exercise in that it is free and appropriate for all fitness levels. Running is a great activity in London because of its flat terrain. Its numerous bridges, parks, woodlands, and canals provide lots of opportunities for walking exploration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2)peaceful walk through postman’s park- <\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of London’s most moving structures, George Frederic Watts’ “Memorial to Heroic Self-Sacrifice,” is just a short stroll from St. Paul’s Cathedral. Little more than 50 ceramic plaques, each honouring a regular person who sacrificed their lives trying to save others, are scattered across the peaceful Postman’s Park, tucked beneath a tiled roof. The descriptions of several of the situations are so terrible that you could easily spend your whole lunch hour reflecting on their selflessness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

3)A bike ride from Battersea park to Greenwich- <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Observe the who’s who of London’s riverside icons as you cruise along the Thames on Route 4 of the National Cycle Network. The journey combines quieter roads with traffic-free trails and is jam-packed with attractions like the London Eye, the Globe, and Tate Modern, allowing you to sightsee to your heart’s content. Take it slow and stop at Borough Market to get some food. Or try to go to The Royal Observatory as quickly as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

4)picnic at the primrose hill- <\/p>\n\n\n\n

a timeless element at the heart of London, where you can take a step back from the busy scene of the city, and admire nature and hustle and bustle coincide. If you get there at just about 8 pm in the warm evenings of July you can watch the sunset over the city. 
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5)A relaxing evening in open-air theatre- <\/p>\n\n\n\n

for our less active Londoners who’d just like to be outside, take a trip to the open-air theatre which starts from march to late October. Watch your favourite upcoming musicals and Shakespearean plays from the comfort of, well not your own home but from nature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
