Sky Garden

Perched on the 35th floor of the Walkie Talkie building (20 Fenchurch Street), the Sky Garden is London’s highest public garden. This three-level oasis is filled with Mediterranean plants and offers 360-degree views of the city skyline, including landmarks like the Shard, Tower Bridge, and the Thames. The space features a bar and restaurant, making it a popular spot for both daytime visits and evening drinks. Visitors can stroll through the landscaped terraces, relax on benches, and take in the ever-changing cityscape. The garden is free to enter but requires advance booking due to high demand. The experience is enhanced by the building's distinctive curved shape, which creates a unique vantage point.

A bit of history

The Sky Garden is part of 20 Fenchurch Street, a skyscraper completed in 2014 and nicknamed the 'Walkie Talkie' for its distinctive shape. The garden was designed by landscape architects Gillespies and opened to the public in 2015, offering free access as part of the building's planning agreement.
