London<\/a> is one of the most beautiful and historic cities in the world. And as a tourist hotspot, it is often brimming with people wanting to capture a moment in time.<\/p>\n

From world famous monuments<\/a> and statues, to historic churches<\/a> and homes of the rich and the famous, it\u2019s hard to turn a single corner of this city without there being a story behind the area.<\/p>\n

Here is a round up of some of the most Instagrammable spots in London, that aren’t the obvious. Think bold florals and hidden gems, instead of Bucking Palace and the River Thames.<\/p>\n

The most Instagrammable spots in LondonChurchill Arms, Kensington<\/p>\n

The Churchill Arms in Kensington has dubbed itself the most Instagrammable pub in London on its social media – and it\u2019s hard to argue with that.<\/p>\n

Adorned with florals all over the front of the pub, this find in West London is always busy with people snapping pictures both outside and in.<\/p>\n

In summer the front is normally covered in bright bold flowers, but this place doesn’t go out of bloom in the winter months – it is famed for its Christmas light display with thousands flocking here every year for the annual light switch on.<\/p>\n

St Lukes Mews, Notting Hill\"<\/p>\n

Famed for featuring in the film Notting Hill, this beautiful spot is surely one of the most aesthetically pleasing streets to live on in the entire city.<\/p>\n

From rainbow-coloured terraces to cute, pastel-hued mews, there are spots to take some pretty stunning photos around every corner.<\/p>\n

Houses are all different colours, leaving a smorgasbord of options for whatever type of Instagrammable snap you fancy.<\/p>\n

Kynance Mews<\/p>\n

Think of all the romantic snaps you could get in this beautiful spot?<\/p>\n

Draping ivy adorns the entrance of this road, set in South Kensington, not far from Gloucester Road tube station.<\/p>\n

Many line up to get a snap in front of this famous archway, and a quick search on Instagram shows how popular this spot is with all of the influencers.<\/p>\n

Portobello Road\"<\/p>\n

This spot in Notting Hill is famed for people coming along and taking snaps.<\/p>\n

The brightly painted homes and leafy lined streets make the perfect backdrop for a photo.<\/p>\n

Not only is it beautiful, but there are plenty of shops and cafes to peruse if you want a break from striking a pose.<\/p>\n

However, some people aren\u2019t happy with the \u2018overtourism\u2019 in the area. Londoners living metres away from the world-famous Portobello Road <\/a>say they are constantly having to put up with tourists taking pictures <\/a>outside their homes that are loved for their bright exteriors. <\/a><\/p>\n

In a bid to put them off, some have even gone as far as to paint their homes black.<\/a><\/p>\n

Regents Park Road, Primrose Hill\"<\/p>\n

If you are hunting for a spot to show off traditional London, then Regents Park Road in Primrose Hill is the place to go.<\/p>\n

There some stunning old fashioned shop fronts, pastel-coloured houses and even two old fashioned telephone boxes on the same road at the entrance to Primrose Hill Park.<\/p>\n

Chance Street, Shoreditch\"\"<\/p>\n

There is graffiti and street art all over the capital, but arguably, the best place to see some is Shoreditch.<\/p>\n

Chance Street is one hotspot for all street artists, with brightly coloured murals all over.<\/p>\n

And once you are bored of taking snaps for your social media here, you can always join in on a street art tour to learn more about the artists themselves.<\/p>\n

Leake Street Tunnel, Waterloo\"Record<\/p>\n

Record attempt: Cleo Jones from Devon (PA)<\/p>\n

This hotspot is one of the few places in London where street art and graffiti is allowed.<\/p>\n

Located beneath Waterloo Station, the area is a forever changing canvas, meaning that different photo-worthy backgrounds are always on offer here.<\/p>\n

Camden Passage, Angel\"Camden<\/p>\n

Despite the name, this spot is not in Camden – but it is in North London, located in Angel.<\/p>\n

A narrow street adorned with cute independent shops, this Instagrammable spot is always busy and even hosts a vintage market weekly.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"London is one of the most beautiful and historic cities in the world.
