About the area

Little Venice is a hidden waterside corner of London where colourful narrowboats line the canal. Its peaceful atmosphere, away from the city bustle, suits slow vlogs and lifestyle shoots. Nearby Paddington Basin adds modern architecture, so you can shoot both retro and contemporary looks. It isn't overly touristy, which makes it a great hidden-gem photo spot.
