Cosy indian restaurant — traveler post in Bracknell

Cosy indian restaurant

Daruchini Restaurant. A popular Indian restaurant in Binfield, Bracknell, serving many traditional curry and rice dishes. Set within an old cottage with low ceilings, (tall people have to stoop to avoid banging heads!) with plenty of parking off the main road. It was very busy on Sunday when they opened at 1pm due to their delicious Sunday buffets. A large group of people had already been waiting outside for them to open. Used to have to bring your own beverages but they now have a licence to sell alcohol so drinks are available. Seems like they may have changed owners in the last year as they were more friendly, approachable, professional and cleaner than before, along with the new licence. Food was excellent as before; chicken superb and the sauces delicious! Waiter was very good, so we made sure our tip went to him directly. Definitely recommend a visit whether ordering set dishes or going for the buffet.#indianfood

Nice cafe in Bracknell supermarket

Morrisons cafe, Bracknell. We quickly stopped off at the cafe in Morrisons after a shop for a Mocha coffee. Seemed very clean and well organised, staff were efficient and quick. The Mocha tasted good and was a reasonable price compared to the more expensive coffee shops.

The Lexicon! — traveler post in Bracknell

The Lexicon!

The Lexicon, Bracknell. The Lexicon shopping centre in the heart of Bracknell seems very new with many famous name shops, cinema complex, cafes, banks, fast food franchises and supermarket. High glazed roofs cover wide malls, nicely designed with plant boxes enclosing outside dining areas in front of restaurants and life size models of animals down the middle. There are open plazas too, all interlinked with the malls with stairways where many office workers eat their lunch. All appears very clean, well kept and safe. Did not see any aggressive or threatening behaviour from people here as would in the centre of London. All in all, we’ve had many a pleasant walk around here and finished in restaurants in the evenings like Zizzi (Italian), Tang (Chinese ), Las Iguanas (Mexican) and The Real Greek. Highly recommend a visit if you’re in Bracknell!

If you love shopping and live close to Bracknell, this place is a must-see! ❗️ It's packed with shops, including Boots, Waitrose, Poundland, Primark... It's a one-stop shop for everything you need, and the shops are all centrally located, so you don't have to walk a lot. 🚶‍♀️ There's also a lot of great food here. 🍴 We tried the Chinese buffet, which was essentially a mix of Asian dishes, but it was excellent. Overall, it's a great place to visit often. #bracknell

Windsor Castle

Getting from London to Windsor by bus (702 green line) is very convenient, even without taking the train. Photography is prohibited inside the church and castle. Seeing Queen Mary's Toy House reminded me of the inspiration for many miniature landscape designs in China. I personally think it's well worth a visit. Buying tickets is also very convenient. If you want to see the Changing of the Guard ceremony, enter the castle around 1 PM to find a good spot.

LEGOLAND® Windsor Resort

Tickets were issued quickly and the price was reasonable. A must-do for LEGO fans! You can take the 702 direct bus from Victoria Bus Station 7 for three pounds. The two-hour journey includes onboard charging stations and Wi-Fi. This bus also stops at Windsor Castle, so you can head there first.

St George's Chapel

A must-visit chapel in Windsor Castle, which is included in the entrance ticket of Windsor Castle. It is managed by the church. The chapel is very high and well maintained. You can refer to and get relevant information on the audio guide. But taking pictures inside is not allowed. So I bought a 2018 edition of "The Biography of Queen Victoria" in its gift department as a souvenir. I also took a photo of its promotional photo in the "Castle Introduction" at the entrance when entering the castle, and also took a postcard of it.

Eton College

This school, named "Public School", is actually a private secondary school. The original intention of Henry VI to name it "Public School" was to provide free education for poor students, so that poor children could also enter the school as a preparatory school for entering King's College of Cambridge University. But because it was run too well, Eton College gradually became the most famous aristocratic school in the UK, which was completely contrary to the purpose of King Henry VI's school. You can often see study tours organized by domestic private schools at Eton College, but they can only look outside like independent tourists. Eton College is a training place for the British royal family, political and economic elites. It has produced 20 British prime ministers such as former British Prime Minister Cameron, as well as poet Shelley and economist Keynes. It is also the alma mater of Prince Charles, Prince William and Prince Harry, the heirs to the British throne.

Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew

Beautiful garden in the autumn seasons where you can see ducks and squirrels around. Beautiful gardens in a huge garden. The Japanese gate was iconic. And the Chinese tower was iconic too.

The British Museum

My visit to the British Museum was completely transformed by Diana's guide. She didn't just introduce the exhibits; she connected the scattered artifacts into a coherent narrative of world history. From the Rosetta Stone's code and the controversy surrounding the Parthenon reliefs, to the Mesopotamian cuneiform and the historical context behind Oriental porcelain, her explanations were engaging, logically sound, vivid, and insightful. Dry history was no longer just cold text; each artifact came alive with a vibrant background. Her pace was comfortable, and she patiently answered our diverse questions. Three hours was incredibly enriching. Highly recommended! If you want to truly understand the artifacts at the British Museum, you absolutely must see her!

Warner Bros. Studio Tour London

Having visited the Harry Potter studios in Tokyo before, I was familiar with the earlier parts. The difference was that the London studio included an exhibit on Gringotts Castle, and during our visit, there were some Death Eater performances, which were quite entertaining. Finally, the entire Hogwarts Castle wasn't just an exhibit; it also featured a light and shadow show. If I were to personally recommend visiting the Harry Potter studios for the first time, I'd suggest going to London. Firstly, the language is more familiar to Chinese people, and secondly, there's more interaction. Also, in terms of transportation, it's a 20-minute walk from Uston Station to Watford Junction Station, where there's a free shuttle bus to the studios, which is very convenient.

Buckingham Palace

After visiting Windsor Castle and Chatsworth House (Darcy Estate), we then visited Buckingham Palace. If you could only visit one palace in the UK, it would have to be Buckingham Palace. Photography is not allowed inside the royal palaces, as is the case with Windsor Castle, so we could focus on the guided tour. The gift shop after the Buckingham Palace tour has some limited-edition items available only there, making great souvenirs. I bought a Buckingham Palace + Royal Horse Stables combo ticket. The product page stated that visiting the Royal Horse Stables allowed direct entry to Buckingham Palace, but this wasn't actually the case. The State Rooms and the Royal Horse Stables are exchanged at two separate locations, not far apart. However, the ticket exchange and verification are handled by different people, and the verification personnel strictly adhere to the reserved time. The Royal Horse Stables houses the Golden Carriage used exclusively for coronation ceremonies, which is worth seeing; there are also carriages for tourists to ride in and take photos.
