So much for a leisurely stroll. Your curiosity is piqued.

If you want to take a tour of East London’s markets, engage in gritty but fascinating stories of the past, then this interactive puzzle is for you. You will discover things that usually go unnoticed, learn about the architecture, and weave your way through ancient cobbled streets. A very enjoyable and educational historical adventure.

A fantastic way to spend an afternoon if I do say so myself. The route goes through 3 amazing Street markets; Spitalfields Market, Columbia Road Market and Broadway Market. Brick lane is also a highlight. Loads of places along the way for a good coffee and a bite to eat. There is also a park near the end to take a tranquil break in. It finishes at Hackney Central so really useful for travelling on from. 👍
