The view on the north London ridge. Only on a clear day — not also Parliament Hill. Next is Hampstead Heath — do not also stack the Shard the same day.
Analysis
One dusk viewpoint: Alexandra Palace. The park by day; indoor events follow the ticket. Last entry is before the door closes. High decks shut in high wind. Go down to Alexandra Palace, and do not buy a second deck.
Best time
A clear afternoon
How to go
Alexandra Palace rail
Transit
The way out of Alexandra Palace is often not the entrance you used. Find Alexandra Palace before you go down, and keep one train in hand.
Season window
Sunset is late in summer at Alexandra Palace and around four in winter. Rain and fog hide the river — stay at ground level.
Tips
- · Tickets: The park is free. Plan about 40 minutes.
- · The approach is a long slope
- · Glass at Alexandra Palace reflects. The half-hour before sunset is the stable window. Tripods are usually refused.
