I read about the All Saints Church somewhere and learned that it is a beautiful church squeezed in between other buildings that people visiting London never take the time to see. So I decided I had better take a look. I took the picture above with the wide angle so I could get the whole thing in the frame but it makes it look a bit tipsy.
Indeed it is a beautiful church. It was colorful with mosaic scenes on one side and elaborate details even on the ceiling. It really was worth the effort to find it. I'm glad I saw this gorgeous place.
I had visions of visiting the gift shop inside the BBC headquarters once again but I learned from the gentleman pacing in the center of this shot that it is no longer open to the public. He told me there have been too many rowdy demonstrations and protests so they no longer let the public in unless you are invited. What a shame.
After resting my very tired legs for an hour or so, I went out again for an evening walk and discovered this nice little pub tucked away on a very quiet street.
There is always something to see when walking in London.

Hi Sharon, I love all the buildings. That church ⛪️ is beautiful.
Stunning church inside, amazing reredos behind the altar. Did not know the bbc was closed to the public but it does not surprise me with the state of our country. I hope you are not getting ripped off with the prices you pay in the smoke, they think it is their god given right to make you pay more because of where it is
You uncovered some real hidden gems of London, from the tucked-away beauty of All Saints Church to the quiet charm of that little pub
How fun. Relax and enjoy.
That church is amazing. Thanks for taking us on this tour, Sharon.
