Yeah, Barbican is a good place to eat lunch especially with the street food market nearby. We are getting our food from there and eating around the Barbican pond as well. of course when it is sunny :)
Even if most of the time were in pandemic still I can say I have been able to explore around. I have a friend and when we find some time we are doing architectural walks. The best way to learn a city is to walk through right :)
Ah, I'd forgotten about the street market - remind me what that area's called?
There's so much incredible architecture in London and I fully agree, walking around is a great option. The river boat's a really good option too for the day - I lived in Woolwich for a year and got the boat to work 🙂

I didn't know the name until you asked. Apparently it is called whitecross street market.
Yeah, being an architect in London sometimes a bless but sometimes hits you hard. You realise there is a long way to go 🥲
It must be a great way to wake up using that boat to work.

Ah yes, I've been there a few times too (and I had no idea what the name was either so I'm pleased you found out!) - I recognise it from some Google Images though!
Ha ha - I wish I'd done architecture at Uni, It's such an interesting subject and all you need to do is look up, and you'll see something interesting - this is one of my favourites hidden away in the City (although not really anything to do with architecture).

I bet that 90% of people who work in the square mile have never noticed it.

I am one of that %90 as well. Where is this? I really like to find hidden gems like these. I know a guy doing art with gum to the pedestrian roads and whenever i find a new one I feel like found a treasure 😄 Small things are usually enough to make people happy I don't know why we always want more 😅

I left a clue in the source of the image -
https://www.mylondon.news/news/nostalgia/tiny-mice-statue-london-wall-18406831
I read it in a little book and even once I knew about it, I found it rather difficult to find. It's between Monument and Fenchurch Street station. I did feel quite smug knowing that it was there when those around me almost certainly didn't 😆
I think it was this book I found it in - although I don't remember it being so expensive!
