Have a look inside the Sky Garden at the top of London's Walkie Talkie
The Walkie-Talkie building is located at 20 Fenchurch Street. Let's head to the top.
The Sky Garden sits about 150 metres above the city, giving you unique views like this one.
The terrace is 35 floors above street level, which looks impressively far away from up here.
The whole area is really spacious and can fit up to 450 people.
The place is bursting with lush tropical plants.
This is made possible by a staff of award-winning gardeners who start watering them as early as at 6 a.m.
Plants rotate throughout the year based on the season.
The Walkie-Talkie was designed by Uruguayan architect Rafael Viñoly. It feels like a space station from the inside.
The best views are at dawn and sunset, with magnificent lights and shadows.
This is how sunrise looks from the top floor.
The rooftop has three different food venues: a bar, a casual eatery, and a formal restaurant.
The three venues sit on top of each other at the very centre of the terrace.
At the bottom on the terrace level is the casual and cool Sky Pod Bar.
For a more formal dinner, you can head to the Fenchurch Seafood Bar and Grill, at the very top of the building.
There's also the Darwin Brasserie, a laid-back modern British and European restaurant.
The food is a triumph of colours and tastes.
The drinks aren't bad either. Here's a delicious iced coffee.
In the evening, you can enjoy your favourite booze. The Sky Pod bar becomes a fancy cocktail bar at night.
The staff is capable and knows how to make you feel at home.
You can even rent the whole space for a private party.
Like the garden's plants, settings and furniture change throughout the year as well. Now that winter is very much on its way, furry blankets are the way forward.
The toilets may seem claustrophobic, but they are very clean.
To regulate the temperature in the summer, the glass roof is partly retractable — those dark grey parts can be opened at request.
Here's London's iconic Tower of London with Tower Bridge on the right.
On the other side is the City, with St Paul's Cathedral and Westminster in the background.
From up here you can see three of London's most famous skyscrapers all at once. From left to right is the London Stock Exchange, the Cheesegrater, and the Gherkin.
