Last time I shared my travel experience in Green Park and Buckingham Palace. You can see how amazing London is!! This time, I'd like to share my experience in King's Cross. Thank you for your support❤️
親愛的Steemit朋友們大家好！我是Susan哦!上次我跟大家分享了我在格林公園和白金漢宮的美好時光。相信大家都感受到倫敦的魅力了！今天，我想跟大家分享的是我在國王十字的經歷。請大家多多支持哦❤️
1. King's Cross Station 國王十字車站
King's Cross Station is one of the BUSIEST railway stations in the WHOLE NATOIN. For me, it's special owning to its HIGH CULTURAL SIGNIFICANCE. In the 1980's, serious urban decay was found in the areas around King's Cross Station. Therefore, it became a perfect shooting location for the crime film Mona Lisa.
國王十字車站是倫敦其中一個最忙碌的車站。對於我來說，它的特別之處在於其深刻的文化底蘊。在1980年代，國王十字車站附近地區城市老化嚴重。所以，它成為了犯罪電影《蒙娜麗莎》最理想的拍攝地。
Apart from being mentioned in E.M. Forster's 1910 novel Howards End, the Station features in the Harry Potter series as the starting point of the Hogwarts Express:):) The brick wall barrier between platforms 9 and 10 is a secret platform used by the train, and you're right!!!!! It's the famous Platform 9¾ !!! Fans of Harry Potter, what are you waiting for!!
除了在 E.M. Forster 1910年的小說《此情可問天》中被提及，《哈利波特》系列的霍格華茲直通車就是從國王十字車站發車的:):) 9號月台與10號月台之間的磚牆就是此架列車的秘密入口。你猜對了！！！！它就是聞名的9¾月台！！哈利波特的粉絲們，還在等什麼！！
Bye! See you at Hogwarts~~ 拜拜，霍格華茲見咯～
Of course, you can buy some 'Harry Potterish' things form the shop next to the Platform. You can take a look at their website before setting out!!
當然，你可以在月台旁的商店買到十分「哈利波特」的紀念品哦！在你出發之前，可以看看他們的網站哦！！
Interesting Fact: King's Cross station is a square on the British Monopoly board, together with Marylebone, Fenchurch Street and Liverpool Street. Remember to buy the station next time when you step on it!! ;ppp 趣味小知識：國王十字車站在圖板遊戲「大富翁」中佔據了一格哦XD 另外3格是馬里波恩、芬喬奇街與利物浦街。下次你玩這個遊戲的時候如果踩到國王十字車站，記得要把它買下來哦！;ppp
2. St Pancras International 聖潘克拉斯國際車站
St Pancras International Station is the London terminus for Eurostar services to continental Europe. This stunning architecture is in Victorian style, and it is a Grade I listed building. It really took my breath away!!!
聖潘克拉斯國際車站是歐洲之星（歐洲鐵路）在英國的終點站。這座令人嘆為觀止的建築充滿維多利亞風格，已被列入倫敦一級登錄建築。我完全被它的美所征服！
Few people know that the clock tower (see above photos) is a PRIVATELY OWNED PROPERTY!!!!! Wanna live in Central London and experience how lively the city is? Just check out their website and book your ticket to London tonight!! ;pp
相信只有少數的人知道，這個鐘樓（見上圖）是一個私人物業！！！你想住在倫敦市中心、體會這所城市震動的脈搏嗎？快快瀏覽他們的網站，然後火速訂票前往倫敦吧！;pp
Let's walk inside the Station. It looks as astonishing!!!! >V<
讓我們走進車站。看起來一樣驚艷！
Of course, it's more than just a station. It's famous for its art. Below is a 9-metre bronze statue called the Meeting Place. It is often called the Lovers statue. It was made by the well-known sculptor Paul Day. It's usually the first thing you can see after stepping into the station:):)
當然，它不止是一個車站。它還因藝術而聞名。下面是一個9米高的銅像，名為Meeting Place (會合之地)。它經常被稱為 the Lovers（情侶之像）。它是著名的雕塑家Paul Day所創造的。當你走進聖潘克拉斯國際車站，你通常第一眼看到的就是它哦:):)
This is a 8.5ft statue of Sir John Betjeman made by Martin Jennings. Sir John Betjeman was a great poet. More importantly, he saved the Station from demolition in the 1960's. Therefore, this sculpture was made to celebrate the man and his poetry.
這是一座8.5英呎高、由Martin Jennings建成的Sir John Betjeman雕塑。 Sir John Betjeman是一名偉大的詩人。更重要的是，他曾經讓這個車站逃離了在1960年代被拆的命運。所以，這座雕像紀念了他與他的詩歌。
Hey! A UFO!! ;pp 看吶！UFO!! ;pp
As we all know, the 2012 Olympic Game was held in London. So, there used to be a huge set of Olympic Rings at St Pancras International. These Rings became one of the symbols of the Station. Unavoidably, they were removed after the 2012 closing ceremony. HOWEVER, they were individually dismantled and recycled into seating units outside the Southeastern High Speed platforms! It's a perfect way to remember the 2012 London Olympic as well as promoting environmental protection, and creativity!!!!
我們都知道，2012年奧運會是在倫敦舉行的。所以，這裏曾經有一個巨大的奧運五環，是這個車站的標誌。無可避免地，在閉幕典禮之後它們就被拆掉了。但是，每個環後來被單獨地拆下並重組，變成了Southeastern High Speed月台外的椅子！這個方法不僅紀念了2012倫敦奧運，而且推動了環保及創意，簡直是一舉三得！
3. Granger & Co.
Granger & Co. is an Australian restaurant reflecting a sunny, easy-going and generous environment. There are always a longggg queue outside the restaurant!! It's very famous for its breakfast, especially the EGGS. I didn't expect a breakfast like this (see photos below) could be tasty. HOWEVER, I was SOOO wrong. The bread was a little salty and the taste matched perfectly with its texture. The avocados were super fresh. And the egg was just excellently cooked!!
Granger & Co. 是一間澳洲餐廳。它推崇陽光, 親切及寬容。餐廳外總是有長長的隊伍！它的早餐十分出名，尤其是雞蛋。我以為像這樣的早餐(見下圖)不會好吃到哪兒去。可是，我大錯特錯！！這塊麵包有些鹹，與它的質感配合得天衣無縫。牛油果十分新鮮，一點兒也不膩。雞蛋更是無可挑剔！！
Guess what it is......It's a cup of hot chocolate!!! Tooooo artistic, huhhh?? >V<
猜猜這是什麼......是一杯熱巧克力哦！！這也太藝術了吧？>V<
We went there several times, and I like their Korean fired rice and curry too:):)
我們光顧了許多次，我還很喜歡他們的韓國炒飯和咖哩:):)
It's located at Stanley Building, 7 Pancras Square London N1C 4AG. If you're interested, please feel free to check out their website!!
它的地址是Stanley Building, 7 Pancras Square London N1C 4AG。如果有興趣的話，請瀏覽他們的網站哦！
The BEST things of today's adventure is that......all the 3 places I introduced are located in the SAME AREA-King's Cross!!! Actually, Google will construct a 11-STOREY HEADQUARTER at King's Cross next year!!! There'll be a swimming pool, gym, games area and a rooftop cafe, among others >V< Upon completion, King's Cross will become famous for not only it's amazing architecture, history, transportation and art, but also its commercial activities!!
今天的旅程最棒的一件事是......我以上介紹的所有景點都在同一個區域-- 國王十字哦！其實，Google將會於明年在國王十字興建一個倫敦的總部！！屆時會有泳池、健身室、遊戲區域和天台咖啡店哦>V<到時候，國王十字就不僅以它驚人的建築、歷史、交通以及藝術而聞名，還會以商業活動吸引更多的目光呢！
Please feel free to know more by reading this article :):)

My eldest brother lives in london and has for MANY years. I would LOVE to visit, but sadly the South African economy does not really afford such travel treats.
Really loved your post, perhaps you might like to give mine a gander :)

Loving the 'Harry Potterish' photo. It's hard to believe they were going to going to bulldoze St. Pancras several times before Sir John Betjeman saved it. Check out his poems
or his album 'Banana Blush' which is an eccentric masterpiece.
Awesome!
Thanks a lot @isjw84:)

Thanks so much @onyi247 :)
London is a place to go - if you can get there for sure. Izzit troo their bridge is falling down ??
@lanceman haha we meet again! Nawww it's not :)
Nice trip but there's one thing I have to wonder. How many shots did it take for @susanlo to get the scarf also flying like that? :-)
OMG excellent question!!! Hahahaha I have to DISCLOSE MY SECRET to @ace108!! 😆 It took only 2 shots!! The staff were surprised at my efficiency coz usually 5 shots were needed!! But it wasn't as hard as you may think, coz......
There's a person responsible for throwing the scarf in the air LOL!!!! Yet, it's often difficult to make CLEAR shots since you're in motion. Hehe the foto is one of my favourites! >v<
谢谢揭开谜底。:-)
不用謝！😈😈
Most of the females visit there took a photo like this, so staffs are well trained to do this.
Haha half correct!! The sex ratio was around 1:1 ;ppp coz as long as you're a HP fan, you won't walk away without taking a photo with this platform! XD
I mean females always take photos of this kind of post and always have the scarf flying, while male may not. I also had photo taken there.... of course without the flying scarf...
美
😆😆O大哥早上好！謝謝讚賞😌
i want to go someday :)
The place is beautiful as beautiful as its people
