Christmas Day in London in photographs
When I think of Christmas in London - the first thing that comes to my mind is suspended transport. The last year I have been enjoying the festivity with my family at home, but this year I decided to get a bike and see what is happening on streets on 25th of December. The pictures follow my route from Zone 2 to Zone 1 which took me about two hours. Hope you will enjoy my photographs.
The streets in my area were quite empty compared to a regular day.
Can anyone help to identify this amazing car?
Tower Hill.
People taking pictures in front of the Tower of London, built in 1078 and rebuilt in 1285.
The Bank, known as one of the most confusing tube stations in London Underground network.
This is where I got lost, and my GPS failed. Luckily I found this lovely place and eventually managed to get out.
Leicester Square and lots of people to my surprise. Most restaurants and cafes were closed.
Trafalgar Square Christmas tree. Since 1947 Norway supplies trees in gratitude for support of Britain during World War II. The tree was selected from a forest in Norway and shipped across the North Sea. This particular tree is more than a 100 years old.
The National Gallery in Trafalgar Square founded in 1824.
Piccadilly Circus built in 1819.

The car:
Probably a Nissan Figaro manufactured in 1991. You can actually inquire about this (or any) car on DVLA website.
