damn, i used to commute here every day from kensington, feels like a different life although it was only a year ago, london is probably my favourite place on earth
So love your videos, and it gives me great ideas of where to visit when I'm in London next. I went to London for the very first time last year (was there for 3 days) and was absolutely blown away by the place, and can't wait to go back. I plan on visiting London for many years to come.
JAMES WHITELEY Thanks for recommending Bath. I also wanted to visited the castle from Downton Abby. That’s been on my bucketlist since day 1. I just need to know is it close by York or a little far off
Tyiesha Jackson I believe it’s a little bit out of the way. At least for us British - we’re not used to travelling long distances lol. Are you just staying in York? If you’re staying in London I would recommend Windsor Castle or the Hampton Court. Highclere Castle (Downton Abbey) might be a little tricky using public transport.
One of the great things about Watched Walker's videos is that non Londoners can see a lot of the city away from the proverbial tourist hot spots. There's a hell of a lot more to London than Buckingham Palace, Westminster Abbey, The Tower etc. as great as they might be.
But City of London is the tourist hot spot too (St Paul etc.). I would love to see Watched Walker recording places like Stratford, Brixton, Tottenham, Wembley, Croydon - in other words some real London streets. Still a fan of his videos though.
These videos are well worthy of getting nominated in ‘BAFTA’ for being the best WALKING tour guide videos with good looking people all around as walking actors in it. AND the Oscar goes to ‘watched walker’. Hasan Lahore, Pakistan
This is great. I haven't been able to get out and people watch because of an illness. I love all the buildings round there (well , most anyway) , I used to get out at Holboln and work in chancery lane. Thanks so much , feel like I was there again.
Stunning walk, some of the buildings you passed were A grade when it comes to beauty, especially that Tudor one where Vodafone was located! wow it was gorgeous....
Bella Londres es mi ciudad favorita de Europa. Espero algún día visitarla. Saludos desde Venezuela(Espero que algún día cuando las cosas mejoren puedas visitar mi país y hacer un walk aquí ) :D. Beautiful London is my favourite city in Europe. I hope to visit it someday. Greetings from Venezuela ( I hope that someday When Things improves. You can visit my country and do a walk here) :D.
Thanks Tony - I always list the date in the description and try to post a mixture of recently filmed and videos from past months that I hadn't been able to post sooner due to time constraints.
Ah, I missed watching your London walks. Tried watching London walks by other channels the other day, and I literally felt like I was cheating I couldn't properly enjoy the video. You've ruined me. But I forgive you :)
Really depends on the area. The City of London (Financial Centre) is the worst offender where many fine buildings were demolished in the 60's,70's and 80's to be replaced with cheap trash which is now being replaced again (usually with something better if not ideal) Kensington ,Chelsea, Mayfair and parts of Westminster are much better preserved and any new buildings are generally of a high quality.
@@paullewis2413 yes I agree. The 60's, 70's and 80's were the worst years for architecture. I just wish we could have preserved our buildings better like France does. All modern buildings look the same.
I disagree... some modern buildings complement historic buildings. But during the 60s to 90s they did build some outstanding rubbish! Thankfully that crap is being replaced. London is a beautiful city in parts, makes it unique!!!
lawn38 yeah I think the new buildings are better than that period. However, I did go to Paris and got a bit bored of the sameness of the architecture. I found it easy to get lost in Paris due to the buildings looking the same whereas in London areas are unique.

It's so nice to travel around London through your camera...thank you once again!!!!!
You’re very welcome John!
damn, i used to commute here every day from kensington, feels like a different life although it was only a year ago, london is probably my favourite place on earth
London is most beautiful city in the world. I love your videos 😍👍
Thank you DW :)

Thank you TalsVids - nice to hear you enjoyed your trip last year and plan to return :)
I’m traveling to York England in May so this will be my first time leaving America✨
York is beautiful and full of history. York Minster will blow your breath away!
Was there last weekend and it’s always a lovely visit. I think you’ll get more of a feel of England when you go there. I would also recommend Bath.
lawn38 I’m glad you had a amazing experience in York. Thanks for sharing, I definitely will feel the connection in a new city✨
JAMES WHITELEY Thanks for recommending Bath. I also wanted to visited the castle from Downton Abby. That’s been on my bucketlist since day 1. I just need to know is it close by York or a little far off

I did not visit london but with your vids i become know all part of london
More and more .. thank you...
Jalil, you're welcome :)

Thanks for the kind words Paul, and I agree, there's so much to see in London off the beaten track!
But City of London is the tourist hot spot too (St Paul etc.). I would love to see Watched Walker recording places like Stratford, Brixton, Tottenham, Wembley, Croydon - in other words some real London streets. Still a fan of his videos though.

Ha, thank you Hasan, a Bafta would be awesome! Greetings to Lahore :)
This is great. I haven't been able to get out and people watch because of an illness. I love all the buildings round there (well , most anyway) , I used to get out at Holboln and work in chancery lane. Thanks so much , feel like I was there again.
Laurence, I'm glad you enjoyed the video and that it got you out and about (virtually at least) - thanks for watching :)
Stunning walk, some of the buildings you passed were A grade when it comes to beauty, especially that Tudor one where Vodafone was located! wow it was gorgeous....
Thanks MMV - yes, there are some lovely buildings along that route for sure! :)

Thanks Magg 97, I hope you do get to visit London, and hopefully in the future I can visit and film in your country :)
Love London
GREAT JOB ....BROTHER
Thank you!
Wow..... I like
4:24 this is one of the main reasons for disabling garbage dumps in cities. See Japan and Korea. Great walk Mr. Walker!
Thanks Anolipa :)
Where is everybody going in such a hurry ?
Do you hold your phone on a stick or by hand when filming?
Uncle Tim, I use a gimbal - I list the gear I use in the description :)
I think this video filming 1 month ago..... Nice Videos... But please upload latest one.
Thanks Tony - I always list the date in the description and try to post a mixture of recently filmed and videos from past months that I hadn't been able to post sooner due to time constraints.
London at night!!!! Please. Its very beautiful
I already have several videos of London at night on my channel, and would like to film more - so keep an eye out for them :)
Ah, I missed watching your London walks. Tried watching London walks by other channels the other day, and I literally felt like I was cheating I couldn't properly enjoy the video. You've ruined me. But I forgive you :)
Ha, that's funny Dee, but don't feel bad about watching other London walks, I won't get jealous - as long as you still watch mine! ;)
@@WatchedWalker Don't think I could even if I tried. They're part of my routine now. I'll try to tell my brain that watching others is okay :D
Oh I thought you're going to pass by Moorgate.
You never walked there. Shame.
👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻🎥👌🏻
Everyone is in a rush to nowhere.
Kristoffer, most are rushing to get home after work I imagine! ;)
