You are here. day 2

I did some research about Piccadilly, Green Park and the Park Lane Hotel today. They are as follows:

Piccadilly:
- Buildings of interest: Bram Stoker's Dracula owned a house on Piccadilly; Brideshead Revisited was set in Park Lane Hotel; the Golden Compas was filmed in there; Virgina Woolf's The Legacy was set on Piccadilly.
- Only called Piccadilly in the 16th century because a man called Rober baker started selling a fashion item called Piccadills (which were widely sought after). was called Portugal Street before

Green Park:

Park Lane Hotel:
