Paddington is changing fast: come and discover the new face of this canal-side neighbourhood with Blue Badge guide Muriel Carre .
The area of Paddington has been abuzz with cranes and drills for more than a decade now and it has changed beyond recognition. Where else in London do mallards and moorhens glide along electric and paddle boats? More surprises in store for you in the world’s oldest transport hub where a canal, a Grade I listed train station, the oldest underground station, and the brand-new Elizabeth Line converge around grass amphitheatres, roll bridges, a famous hospital, and a historic church. This is the new London, hectic, multicultural, noisy, a mix of old and new, ugly and beautiful. And yes….we will also meet a bear from darkest Peru!
