Once collectively known as the Tate Gallery, London's two Tate galleries - Tate Britain and Tate Modern - comprise one of the world's most important art collections. Opened in 1897 as the basis of a national collection of significant British art, the gallery continued to make acquisitions and needed more space to properly display its collections. The end result was the establishment of Tate Britain, in Millbank on the north side of the Thames, as home to its permanent collection of historic British paintings. A superbly transformed power station across the Thames became home to the modern art collections. Art lovers can spend a whole day viewing both sites, conveniently connected by high-spe

Drinks & Nightlife
The club was born as a result of the UK’s acid house scene being forced from fields and warehouses into licenced inner-city venues in the ‘90s. Originally a juice bar with no alcohol for sale, it drew international players in the early and hazy days of the ’90s because of the quality of its sound system.

Ten minutes walk away, this is much less fancy than the Anchor and Hope and in some ways, more charming. The food is much cheaper but still good, British pub grub. This is how pubs should be.

Parks & Nature
Columbian families have picnics and BBQ, hipsters cycle and keep fit people jog around this haven of green in the most urban on neighbourhoods. Once a canal ran through all the way to Camberwell Road and slum dwellings and warehouses all around were razed in the late 70s to create a green space - recently revamped with millions of architectural remodelling it has turned the park into a really great place to spend a (rare) sunny day. Nice quiet cycle route into Peckham is also a boon.
