Highgate
Highgate is a leafy residential area with quaint tea rooms, gastropubs, and fine 18th-century buildings. Novelist George Eliot and revolutionary Karl Marx are among the historical figures buried at Highgate Cemetery, known for its elaborate tombs and wild greenery. Families with kids feed the ducks in neighbouring Waterlow Park, home to Lauderdale House, a graceful old mansion that hosts exhibitions and concerts.
