The 10 Most Instagrammable Places in London

Whether you’re a tourist visiting, a new resident in this beautiful city, or were born and raised in the Forest City, knowing where the top Instagram spots are is key. Luckily, London is full of stunningly eye-catching spots to snap. With a thriving arts and culture community, you’ll find plenty of options hand-created by local artists as well as old buildings, rich with historical architecture. From vintage to modern art and everything in between, here are the top 10 most Instagrammable places in London, Ontario.

The Civic Gardens

If you’re a lover of the outdoors, then the Civic Gardens on the corner of Spring Bank Park Drive and Wonderland Road is the perfect spot to capture stunning ‘gram-worthy photos. From stone structures, pergolas, adorable wood bridges, cute gazebos, breathtaking gardens, tranquil ponds, and manicured hedges, you’ll find so many Instagrammable spots you’ll be filling up your feed in no time. 

Old London Ice Cream Company Building

The London Ice Cream Company’s old building on Baseline is another great backdrop for an Instagram pic. The bright pink building makes for the perfect eye-catching background for your photo, whether it’s a selfie, or just showing off your drool-worthy ice cream cone. 

While the London Ice Cream Company no longer serves ice cream there, a new little ice cream joint has popped up in its place, so you can still get your delicious ice cream and show it off to the ‘gram with that oh-so-familiar bright pink wall in the photo. 

Green Mind Sock Monkey Mural 

While Euston Park is beautiful in its own right and totally worthy of your Instagram feed, the Green Mine Sock Monkey Mural is such a bright and eye-catching piece of art that it makes for the PERFECT opportunity for the ‘gram.

You can take a pic right in front of the mural, or head up the hill and capture it from afar along with the beautiful greenery surrounding it. 

Market Lane Murals

Outside of the Covent Garden Market, you’ll find beautiful, striking, brightly-coloured murals. These murals were created by Stephanie Boutari, Hawlii Pichette, and Meaghan Claire Kehoe in 2020. They perfectly capture the artisan vibes of the market and downtown core, which makes them a must-have on any Londoner’s Insta profile. 

Old East Village Murals

Old East Village launched a murals project in the last couple of years. You can find the full list of murals here. Talented local artists spent hours creating beautiful and eye-catching spots that are just begging to be put on your Instagram feed. Just don’t forget to tag #oev #ldnont in your posts!

Neighbourhood Laundromat Cafe’s Murals And Art

Not your average laundromat, Neighbourhood Laundromat Cafe provides exceptional laundromat services, delicious meals and baked goods, AND incredible Instagrammable opportunities.

Head to the right side of the exterior building for the Explore The Forest Mural, which is sure to pop as a backdrop to any photo you take there. 

Fanshawe Pioneer Village 

Fanshawe Pioneer Village is a living history museum. As you walk around the grounds, the vintage 19th-century homes and buildings are just so picturesque that you cannot help snapping up pictures and posting them online.

The Old East Village Mosaic on Marshall Street was created by local artist, Susan Day. You cannot help but stop and stare when you pass by.

Whether you Instagram it solo or as a backdrop to a photo of you, it’s sure to pop on your Instagram feed.
