Do you know about "Postman's Park?"

The small green park called "Postman's Park" is located in near the St Paul's Cathedral.

I visited at here two times with my friends.

After I watched a film "Closer", I've interested at this small park.

First scene of the film, "Jude Law" and "Natalie Portman" looked around together this park when they were strolling at centre of London.

Under the sheltered area is a wall commemorating ordinary people who lost their lives trying to save others.

This was the idea of the painter G.F. Watts (1817-1904), and the hand-lettered tiles were made by Doulton.

"Natalie" was impressed at this park's purpose, she were using the name as "Alice Ayres" ,which she saw the name in this park, in the film.


If you go there, you can see many of names which written on the tiles at the special place of this park.

This park gives peaceful mind to you and you would have a chance to think about important of your life.

  1. Interesting. Why don't you add a map to your blog so we can see how to get there? I think it's a great story. What about the film "Closer"? Is it any good?
