There are excellent schools in the area, along with impressive shopping centres, restaurants, sporting facilities and cultural venues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Magnificent chrome and glass skyscrapers tower above the clouds, rubbing shoulders with the district\u2019s riverside residential developments, luxury penthouse apartments and trendy warehouse conversions reminiscent of the area\u2019s industrial past.

There are many <a href=\"https:\/\/tfl.gov.uk\/bus\/stop\/HUBCAW\/canary-wharf\">buses<\/a> from East London to Canary Wharf, along with a night bus to and from Trafalgar Square.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For business trips and holidays, the nearest airport is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.londoncityairport.com\/\">London City Airport<\/a>, just 20 minutes away on the DLR \u2013 providing services to 50 destinations worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Nearest stations:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><a href=\"https:\/\/tfl.gov.uk\/dlr\/stop\/940GZZDLCAN\/canary-wharf-dlr-station?lineId=dlr\">Canary Wharf DLR<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/tfl.gov.uk\/tube\/stop\/940GZZLUCYF\/canary-wharf-underground-station?lineId=jubilee\">Canary Wharf underground station<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/tfl.gov.uk\/river-bus\/stop\/930GCAW\/canary-wharf-pier?lineId=rb4\">Canary Wharf Pier<\/a><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Education<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Canary Wharf is a wonderful place for new parents to live, with social evenings held in Tower Hamlets every month and baby and toddler classes nearby. The <a href=\"https:\/\/hoop.co.uk\/\">Hoop<\/a> app is ideal for searching all kids\u2019 activities within Canary Wharf, whilst <a href=\"https:\/\/letsmush.com\/the-app\/\">Mush<\/a> is the easiest way to connect with mums or mums-to-be in your area.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In terms of further education, most students living in the area attend <a href=\"https:\/\/www.qmul.ac.uk\/\">Queen Mary<\/a> in nearby Mile End. There is also the<a href=\"https:\/\/www.gre.ac.uk\/\"> University of Greenwich<\/a> on the other side of the River Thames, and many more top universities are easily commutable from Canary Wharf.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Leisure and amenities<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Spanning almost 100 acres, Canary Wharf is vast and exciting. A hive of activity, designer shops, big-name restaurants and top bars, the area also plays host to numerous cultural events throughout the year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From heading to the cinema with friends to doing the weekly shop at the biggest Waitrose in the country, Canary Wharf is well-suited to working professionals and families who want the convenience of everything they need directly on their doorstep. For keen chefs, the famous Billingsgate Fish Market is also located at Canary Wharf and is the largest inland wholesale fish market in the UK. It opens from 4.30am until 9.30am but set those alarms and get there early for the best deals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Nestled amongst Canary Wharf\u2019s glistening architecture are a number of spectacular parks and green spaces \u2013 a pleasant contrast to the imposing buildings and concrete jungle of Canada Square. Whether walking the dog, having fun with the kids or relaxing on a summer\u2019s day, Canary Wharf\u2019s parks are the perfect antidote for relaxing after a busy week at work. Jubilee Park is a beautifully hidden space awash with water fountains, flowering cherry trees and redwoods, whilst <a href=\"https:\/\/canarywharf.com\/open-spaces\/crossrail-place-roof-garden\/\">Crossrail Place<\/a> boasts a unique enclosed roof garden featuring exotic plants and trees from around the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"572\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yopa.co.uk\/homeowners-hub\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/canary-wharf-1024x572.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1338\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.yopacrm.yopa.co.uk\/homeowners-hub\/uploads\/2020\/04\/canary-wharf-1024x572.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.yopacrm.yopa.co.uk\/homeowners-hub\/uploads\/2020\/04\/canary-wharf-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cdn.yopacrm.yopa.co.uk\/homeowners-hub\/uploads\/2020\/04\/canary-wharf-768x429.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn.yopacrm.yopa.co.uk\/homeowners-hub\/uploads\/2020\/04\/canary-wharf-50x28.jpg 50w, https:\/\/cdn.yopacrm.yopa.co.uk\/homeowners-hub\/uploads\/2020\/04\/canary-wharf.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A desirable shopping spot, <a href=\"https:\/\/canarywharf.com\/shopping\/\">Canary Wharf<\/a> is home to more than 120 stores across five shopping centres. The area is ideal for browsing all the top high street shops and designer boutiques to your heart\u2019s content, then finishing your day with a bite to eat at one of the area\u2019s many eateries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dining options include respected chain restaurants, restaurants with panoramic vistas and rooftop street food arcades. Whatever your culinary preferences, Canary Wharf has it all. Highlights include opulent Italian restaurant <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bigmammagroup.com\/italian-restaurants\/barbarella\">Barbarella<\/a>, the ever popular <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dishoom.com\/canary-wharf\/\">Dishoom,<\/a> serving the best of Bombay comfort food on the waterfront, and sustainable outpost <a href=\"https:\/\/roerestaurant.co.uk\/\">Roe<\/a>, sister restaurant to the impressive Fallow.

Head to Europe\u2019s largest luxury health club, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thirdspace.london\/clubs\/canary-wharf\/\">The Third Space<\/a> in Canada Square, for a swim or fitness class, or to Virgin Active\u2019s Canary Riverside Health Club to use their state-of-the-art gym overlooking the River Thames. Or keep it low key at the Tiller Leisure Centre.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For more outdoorsy pursuits, the Thames Path is just a stone&#8217;s throw from the main Canary Wharf development and provides a pleasant (if slightly long) walking route in to central London. Personally though, we prefer the route which heads south-east towards Greenwich as it&#8217;s quieter, runs through the wonderfully quirky Greenwich Foot Tunnel, and &#8211; for the history lovers amongst you &#8211; provides an opportunity to see the remains of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.historic-uk.com\/HistoryMagazine\/DestinationsUK\/SS-Great-Easterns-Launch-Ramp\/\">SS Great Eastern&#8217;s launch ramp<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What\u2019s on?&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are plenty of things to do in and around Canary Wharf for the whole family. Owing to its high-rises, Canary Wharf is one of the best spots in the city to enjoy a meal and a drink with a view or watch the London Marathon which starts in nearby Blackheath from a prime position.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Movie-lovers have the choice of two cinemas, Cineworld in West India Quay and the Everyman in Crossrail Place, perfect for keeping the family entertained when it\u2019s a bit drizzly outside. Watersports are a popular pastime, too, with many residents trying out windsurfing, sailing, kayaking, canoeing or powerboating at the Docklands Sailing and Watersports Centre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The biggest draw to the area, which attracts people from all over London, is the amazing <a href=\"https:\/\/canarywharf.com\/winter-lights\/\">Winter Lights Festival<\/a>. Each year, visitors and residents flock to admire the light displays over Canary Wharf\u2019s public spaces, bringing a touch of magic to the dark nights. Equally, in the summer the Canary Wharf Outdoor Stage comes alive with live music, dance and theatre performances and sporting events like Wimbledon are shown live on the big screen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For a spot of culture, head to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.museumoflondon.org.uk\/museum-london-docklands\">Museum of London Docklands<\/a>, with its fantastic exhibitions, events and performances for all of the family, a huge collection of public art and fascinating historical walks and talks that delve into the area\u2019s Victorian past.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Less than a mile from Canary Wharf is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mudchute.org\/\">Mudchute Park and City Farm<\/a>, which brings a welcomed 32 acres of countryside to the heart of East London.
