Attractions

【White Hart Lane】

In the north, there is a large stadium, White Hart Lane, which is home to the English professional football team Tottenham Hotspur F.C.

【Alexandra Palace】

To the west is Alexandra Palace, located in Alexandra Park.

The entire palace was built in 1973, and its purpose is to become a public center of entertainment and education in North London, and it is also one of the places that London tourists love to check in.

BBC Chinese special correspondent Marina once reported on "Green Lanes" in this district: "There is a place called Haringey in the North End of London, where Turkish restaurants have a particularly good reputation."

Culture

The district is culturally diverse and densely populated. Nearly 40% of the residents are immigrants. There is also the largest Jewish community in London, with many Jewish, Greek, Turkish, Cyprus and Kurdish residents.

Celebrities

The famous singer Adele was born and raised in Tottenham, the metropolis of this area.

British actor Emer Kenny was also born in this district.

Investment Highlights

The Wood Green area in this area, because its housing prices are significantly lower than the surrounding areas of Haringey, such as the wealthy western areas of Muswell Hill, Crouch End and Hornsey, has attracted more and more investors, especially the redevelopment projects in the area.

Earlier, the Haringey Council had announced that it would invest 1 billion pounds to revitalize the city center.

According to Haringey official Cllr Joe Goldberg, Wood Green will become "the heart of North London."

In the planning and construction of the next 15 years, 3.5 billion will be invested to help this area build nearly 8,000 houses and create 4,000 jobs. As more and more white-collar workers enter, the demand for renting houses in the future will become increasingly large.

At the same time, it will seize the opportunity of Crossrail 2 to build it into a major shopping center in North London.

Haringey has both a long history and a vibrant life-a redevelopment plan of hundreds of millions of pounds is in full swing.

Unlike other administrative areas in London, in order to protect a large number of ancient buildings in this area, the entire renovation plan can only be carried out under the guidance of the British Historical and Cultural Heritage Protection Committee.

The National Bureau of Statistics of the United Kingdom released a set of authoritative data several years ago: From March 2016 to March 2017, the top ten areas with the fastest rise in house prices in London, Haringey topped the list!
