About the area

Covent Garden combines a historic market hall, street performers and the glamour of theatreland. Instagram-worthy hidden spots are scattered within a few minutes' walk, such as the colourful courtyard of Neal's Yard and the gas-lit alley of Goodwin's Court. Seasonal decorations are beautiful too, and it becomes one of the most popular photo spots at Christmas. It's compact, easy to get around and good from daytime into the evening.

Covent Garden shooting route

Start at Neal's Yard in the quieter morning, then head through Seven Dials to the Piazza. Goodwin's Court looks lovely with its gas lamps in the evening, so save it for later.
