We stayed and listened to a play here before driving away.
Although there is the help of sound, the sound of the sea in the background greatly affects the performance of the actors. However, this does not mean that the sea background greatly affects the drama. On the contrary, it complements each other and makes the heavily formulaic drama appear more natural.
Maybe this has something to do with the choice of drama.
Today's performance is a mythological drama.
When Poseidon was about to appear, thunder roared on the stage, and accompanied by the real and natural sound of waves, the actor playing Poseidon opened the curtain and appeared. Under the blue ripple light, he held up his trident, and the ocean behind him was so coincidental.
Unfortunately, a wave came crashing down.
Huge splashes of water appeared behind him, as if it was his roar that made the ocean so turbulent.
The audience was excited.
Continue to stay at the hotel last night, and then drive back to London.
Nine hours later, Han Qi found a hotel near the famous King’s Cross Station called Clink 78.
Han Qi fell in love with this hotel when he saw the photos. The appearance and interior of the building are very unique. I heard that this used to be a courthouse and was turned into a hotel after some renovations, but the old style is still the same.
It is very well preserved and very special.
After confirming his room using the app and the front desk, Han Qi first went to visit the courtroom that was still preserved in the hotel.
A room of about thirty square meters is really the style of a courtroom in European and American movies. However, only half of it has been preserved. The auditorium at the back is separated by a wall, leaving the seats of the original defendant and the judge's seat on the higher steps.
.
When Han Qi came in, he saw a young man with brown hair sitting in the dock. His companion was a girl. It was possible that the two were lovers.
The girl was holding a mobile phone to film the boy sitting in the dock.
It's very restored, because there is even the defendant's brand on the table. If the hotel also provides clothes, this place may be more famous than before. It is estimated that many young people looking for excitement will come and stay for a day just to take pictures.
Seeing Han Qi come in, the boy gave up his seat and said, "Brother, do you want to play?"
"No, I just have to look around."
The original courtroom should have been solemn, and the surrounding walls should have been either solid wood or solid color. However, except for the lower half that looked like a courtroom, the upper part was painted with graffiti. Fortunately, the person who painted the graffiti was a veteran and could paint it well.
not bad.
If you want to visit the court style, look at the statements on the surrounding walls and the seats at several locations. If you want to experience youth culture, look at the hip-hop style graffiti on the four sides.
When you go out, there is a buffet and bar downstairs!
The surrounding elements are also very rich, and being close to King's Cross Station is just one of the reasons. There are many supermarkets, shops, pubs, and restaurants. You can see the beautiful art building of the British Library in London when you go out.
When I came here, I had only just touched London. I took the train directly to Cornwall. Now I can go shopping.
What he wanted to see most was not Big Ben or the Thames, but to see the Royal Victoria Concert Hall.
You may have been lucky when you first started traveling. You drew a concert hall usage coupon from the white treasure box at once. As long as you choose to use it in the system's inventory, you can have the right to use this oldest concert hall in London for one day.
But in what way he performed it, Han Qi didn't know until he used it.
It was too late today, so I took a rest for the night and looked at the map, thinking about where I wanted to go first.
In terms of distance, first go to King's Cross Station, then go to Buckingham Palace, and then go to Victoria Concert Hall...
The next day, Han Qi walked to King's Cross Station without driving.
Stations are the most traditional symbols of European and American culture, especially King's Cross Station in London, England. Its birth can be traced back to 1852. If you give it a little more time, it will be two hundred years old, and it will be older than your grandfather's grandfather.
.
But when you walk into today's King's Cross Station, what you see is not an old-fashioned style, but a building that is the most successful intersection of ancient and modern. There is a waiting hall full of creative and novel styles, with white semicircular mesh wings.
Design, funnel-shaped dome building structure, arc-shaped platforms are neatly arranged.
It's really rare to find this kind of top-notch design that's completely free.
It is estimated that many architecture students will gain a lot of understanding about modern and ancient architectural styles when they come here.
For Han Qi, what impressed her more deeply was the British style in the station.
His current clothes tend to be British style. British style no longer only represents Britain in modern society, but is a style concept. People who understand British style can easily create an architecture or clothing with a strong British style.
design.
Of course, British food can still represent Britain.
When he walked into the station, the weather was clear and the sun was shining brightly. However, after Han Qi stayed inside the station for an hour, what he saw when he walked out of the station again was heavy rain, which was a huge contrast.
This is the British weather, and Han Qi is used to it.
He bought an umbrella at the station and followed the navigation system all the way, but Han Qi found that he had skipped Buckingham Palace and arrived at the concert hall first.
Well, let's take a look at the concert hall first.
Han Qi also learned about the difficulty of holding a concert here afterwards, so as not to appear that he valued it too much. As it turned out, this place was just a concert hall in the UK where any singer could come to attend, so the level would have dropped a lot.
After checking, I found out that very few people can hold concerts here.
If it is a play, then if the play performs well in theaters elsewhere, it is very simple to apply to perform it here. Because Britain is a country that likes to watch dramas. Until modern society, there are dedicated dramas.
screenwriter.
However, there are no more than 30 singers who have independently held concerts here since the beginning of the 21st century.
This is a semicircular building on the roadside. If the concert hall had sharper corners, it would look a bit like the Chinese Altar. Because it is also built in layers, but each layer is curved.
From a distance, it looks like a dome—half a dome?
They are simply two styles of the same building. Wouldn't this British guy copy it?
Opposite the concert hall is Victoria Memorial Square. The square is relatively empty. There is a tower over seven meters high in the middle. It is all white. There is a statue of a person in the tower. According to the name of the square, this should be Queen Victoria.
Most of the surrounding buildings are red bricks, probably to match the exterior color of the concert hall.
Ancient style, modern doors and windows.
Only when you come to these places can you feel how excellent the protection of ancient buildings in Europe is. These buildings have not collapsed for so many years. It is estimated that the outer walls were also maintained when renovating the inside, otherwise they would have become dangerous buildings long ago.
