Portsmouth-Gunwharf Quays

First, let me introduce the geographical location: Portsmouth is located 110 km southwest of London, about 2 hours by train and 3 hours by bus. It is an island city (surrounded by the sea on 3 sides) and an important location for the British National Navy. Looking closely at Portsmouth, the main city center is concentrated on the left (west coast). Gunwharf Quays, located at the foot of the famous Spinnaker Tower, is the most fashionable shopping and leisure center in the area. With a wide variety of shops and entertainment activities, you can easily spend a whole day here. This place used to be an arsenal. Only a few cannons by the water remain, which still give people a glimpse of its past. Today, this area has become a bustling modern area, where both locals and tourists like to visit. Pamper yourself and enjoy a full day of shopping and dining here. There are more than 90 shops in the pier, including many well-known brands. Find quality, affordable clothing at renowned stores including Tommy Hilfiger, Jack Wills and Ted Baker. Or head to Le Creuset or Cath Kidston to stock up on some quality new items for your kitchen. It is also a good idea to go to Swarovski and pick out some beautiful accessories to treat yourself. Whatever you want to buy, you can find it here. If you are tired from shopping, you may want to take a break at the cafes and restaurants here. Dining options are equally diverse, ranging from affordable fast food chains to fine Italian cuisine and hearty American fare. Aspex Café and Waterfront Café offer relaxing spaces where one can sip coffee while watching the people passing by on the street. Next to it is the port, the sea breeze and the harbor ~ so friendly, it is rare to be paired with the blue sky, blue sky and white clouds plus the sea ~ it feels like a vacation.
