Steeped in history, East London occupies the region north of the River Thames and extends eastwards from the historical core of London. Developing alongside London's docks and shipbuilding industry, East London owes its growth to the maritime industries and the expansion of railways in the 19th century. Today, its industrial grounds are transforming into hubs of regeneration with areas like Canary Wharf setting the trend.

Beyond its industrial complexion, East London is enriched by seven distinctive boroughs: Barking and Dagenham, Hackney, Havering, Newham, Redbridge, Tower Hamlets, and Waltham Forest. These boroughs, interlaced by key rivers including the Thames and the Lea, are home to diverse communities and a rich cultural heritage. East London's transport links – from bridges and tunnels to rail lines – enhance the connectivity within the region, providing a vast array of locales for travellers to explore.

When to visit East London

Like a storybook shifting scenes with the seasons, East London presents unique charms throughout the year.
