Kings Cross (London, United Kingdom)

Kings Cross is London’s New Centre of Cool

It is believed that in 61 AD the battle between the Roman invaders and Queen Boudica took place at the ancient crossing of the Fleet River, known as Battle Bridge. Legend has it that Boudica’s final resting place is beneath Platform 9 or 10 at King’s Cross Station. Wow, so much has changed since then! Today Kings Cross is a hive of activity that captures the very special quality of London. It’s also a major rail hub with the Eurostar terminal at St. Pancras, and national trains at King’s Cross Station. What’s most significant however is that holiday makers travel from across the globe to make the most of this world-famous holiday destination.

King’s Cross Station – A Magical Place

Whether you’re a Ravenclaw or a Gryffindor fan, either way you can’t miss the opportunity to snap a pic at Platform 9 ¾, the most famous scene featured in the Harry Potter series. All you have to do is look out for the luggage trolley that’s embedded in the wall, and your Hogwarts Express journey begins. Don’t forget the Harry Potter shop, it’s a must-do for any fan, and handy if you want to pick up a memento or two.

Once you are satisfied with your shopping, why not enjoy a leisurely walk along the revitalized Regent’s Canal to Granary Square, a public area with dancing fountains and an array of top Kings Cross restaurants. If you’ve worked up a good appetite, pop into Granary Square Brasserie, an all-day eatery in the heart of Kings Cross. You’ll be served classic British dishes inside cosy booths surrounded by vibrant colours and leather-bucket chairs. Make sure to try the signature cocktails before you leave.
