<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-2\">&#x1f5fa;&#xfe0f;&#x1f4cd;<strong>Follow my SoulMap&#x2122; and discover London like a local<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#x1f1ec;&#x1f1e7; <strong>Category: <a href=\"https:\/\/pennaspillo.it\/en\/tag\/london-neighborhoods\/\" data-type=\"post_tag\" data-id=\"1341\">London Neighbourhoods<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-3\"><strong>&#x1f343; Discovering Chiswick: Elegant West London, Historic Residences, and Thames Riverside Walks<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-drop-cap p2 has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-4 wp-block-paragraph\">London\u2019s neighbourhoods are all different from one another: <strong>this is Chiswick in West London.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-5 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Each neighbourhood has its own character, <\/strong>its own personality, even its own colours that distinguish it and, with a bit of practice, make it instantly recognisable at first glance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-6 wp-block-paragraph\">Just to give you an idea, South Kensington is mostly black and white in the colours of its buildings, Notting Hill has all its little front doors painted in different shades, strictly one different from the other, and so on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-7 wp-block-paragraph\">One of the things I have loved most since moving to London is <strong>wandering through its different neighbourhoods without a precise destination,<\/strong> exploring them one by one, trying to uncover their secrets and focusing on the details.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-8 wp-block-paragraph\">Some are quiet, others busier, some chaotic and incredibly crowded, yet they are all united by belonging to this magical city and sharing its unique atmosphere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p2 has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-9 wp-block-paragraph\">I have therefore published a series of posts dedicated to London\u2019s neighbourhoods to share all my discoveries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-10 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>The very first neighbourhood I came to know and love,<\/strong> when I began my London adventure in 2016, was Chiswick in West London.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-11 wp-block-paragraph\">It lies in zones two and three, is very <strong>well connected to central London via the District Line,<\/strong> and is roughly located between Hammersmith and Richmond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-12 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>According to my SoulMap&#x2122;, <\/strong>Chiswick is perfect for those who want to discover an elegant and everyday London made of tree-lined avenues, neighbourhood caf\u00e9s and slow walks along the Thames, far from the noise of the city centre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-13 wp-block-paragraph\">From the very first days of my new life, I went out to explore it, and here is what I discovered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure

find in many London neighbourhoods, the kind that transforms them into real villages, with countless <strong>independent shops and caf\u00e9s, pubs, stalls selling fruit, food and flowers<\/strong>, almost like a local market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p2 has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-16 wp-block-paragraph\">The village atmosphere is especially tangible on <strong>Saturday mornings<\/strong>, when the pace slows down and people happily linger between one fruit stall and the next, carefully choosing their produce.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure

crazy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-18 wp-block-paragraph\">The first is <strong>the flower stalls scattered everywhere along the streets, <\/strong>adding colour to every corner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-19 wp-block-paragraph\">The second is <strong>the small independent bookshops with books <\/strong>(often at excellent prices) neatly divided by category, colourful covers, soft background music and the scent of printed paper in the air.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-20 wp-block-paragraph\">I love looking at the books one by one, picking them up and flipping through them slowly, waiting for inspiration to strike before buying one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-21 wp-block-paragraph\">The only problem is that I can NEVER leave a bookshop with fewer than five or six books, so I somehow have to limit my visits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-22 wp-block-paragraph\">I think that, had I not had children to pick up from school, I could easily have spent entire afternoons in a bookshop browsing from shelf to shelf without ever getting tired.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is my favourite bookshop in Chiswick: it is called <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fosterbooks.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Foster Books, <\/a>and it is the typical independent bookshop filled with old-world treasures waiting to be discovered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-23 wp-block-paragraph\">&#x1f4cd;<strong>Address:<\/strong> <em>183
