alice Posted March 31, 2023 Share Posted March 31, 2023 Hi I’ve got a great niece coming to stay for a few days from Ireland. Any ideas other than Camden market very welcome.

sunbob Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 Recently my 14 year old really enjoyed an afternoon at the Barbican. There were quite a lot of young people (perhaps students) hanging out in the open plan areas ground and first floor (some practicing for a play which she found very cool) and the amazing library well populated with all ages reading, studying, browsing the shelves etc. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/324347-what-do-16-year-olds-like-to-do-in-london/#findComment-1618820 Share on other sites More sharing options...

scarlettbanks Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 White Water Rafting in Lee Valley (the artificial Olympic course) is fun for visitors. Tate Modern? Escape Room? Borrow a bicycle and cycle around the canals in Hackney? Movie at iMax? Some events might be on - e.g. at Ally Pally, or Southbank. Thorpe Park? War of the Worlds VR experience?

beck Posted April 6, 2023 Share Posted April 6, 2023 How about Southbank? take in the Globe, Tate Modern, Golden Hind, if you can get them to visit HMS Belfast it's great even if they don't think it's their thing. then past BFI and National Theatre, and the skateboard area, then lots of great places to eat along there.

hazelnunhead Posted April 7, 2023 Share Posted April 7, 2023 My teen likes to do the Escape Rooms .Southbank always good for walk down, buskers, Tate, Globe etc. You can also go up the Oxo tower if you are feeling rich, have a cocktail (or mocktail) and watch the sun set over the Thames.Old Vic has Sylvia playing if you feel like some theatre, or go and see the movie Rye lane at Peckham Plex for a good overview of our neighbourhood.Shoreditch / Brick Lane - easy to get to and lots of shopping and browsing options. I always love the flower market as well.Take the boat as well on the Thames - its a lovely way to see London as well.Greenwich a good option for something nearer - loads to do there Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/324347-what-do-16-year-olds-like-to-do-in-london/#findComment-1619531 Share on other sites More sharing options...
