The Museum of London Docklands is there as well and the unexpected countryside of Mudchute City Farm is just down the road. Further to the east at the opposite end of the IFS Cloud Cable Car from Greenwich Peninsula is the Crystal and ExCeL London exhibition Centre, one of the most most flexible event space and the home to London’s only International Convention Centre ICC London.
Try taking a trip from Greenwich Peninsula on the IFS Cloud Cable Car across the river and working your way through the fastest growing part of London on the DLR. It’s an interesting trip – just make sure you come back!
