If you are tired of staying at home, now make the most out of the weekend by getting stuck into the best things going on this Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
Kew Gardens
If you are ready to fully put yourself into nature,get yourself down to Kew Gardens.The Royal Botanic Gardens is famous for its plant collections from around the world.Recently, everyone visiting the garden, including members, has to book tickets online for the time range before they set foot in the garden.This is the first time that Kew has adopted this policy in its history.

Columbia Road Flower Market
As the largest flower market in East London,this market is located in Bethnal Green.It opens on Sundays.Every Sunday morning the quiet street of Columbia Road fills up with stalls (摊位) selling fresh flowers and plants.Personally, it is wise to go there between 8:00 am and 10:00 am so that you can walk at your own pace and won't be pushed by the crowds.
