You would have seen the Brutalist towers and curves from afar. Upon entering the estate where the cultural centre is, you quickly realise the scale, the beauty and charm of this labyrinthine project. Barbican Centre's programming is top of the league across art, theatre, dance and music, both contemporary and classical, art forms. This place is an architectural and cultural institution boldly redefining the UK's cultural landscape.

Mini mini mini..delicious steamed milk buns.

If you've lived in North London then you probably know all about The Faltering Fullback and their legendary multi-level beer garden

My favourite park in town. They have a small Japanese garden and areas marked off for joggers. Well organised space.

Excellent gallery. It has big rooms which often feature large pieces and admission is free.
