K-On - Heathrow Airport Revisit

The last time I were in London the taxi stand at Heathrow Airport terminal 3 were under renovations, so I couldn't get all the pictures I wanted, but since I were back again I got them this time.

Got a shot from the correct angle this time.

Taxis stopping at the proper location again after the renovations.

Parking garages in the background are the same.

Walkway between terminal building 3 and the parking garage on the left.

The zebra crossing here is the same.



No map since it's just Heathrow Airport.

K-On - Hotel ibis London Earl's Court

This time in London I managed to get a room at Hotel ibis London Earl's Court which was shown in the K-On movie.



Image from K-On movie - 57m05s


I visited this hotel the previous time I were in London as well, but I only got pictures of the outside and the lobby since I wasn't staying there.




Image from K-On movie - 64m12s


The rooms here doesn't look anything like they do in the movie though.




Image from K-On movie - 58m08s


Not even the desk or mirror here are the same.




Image from K-On movie - 73m26s


The elevators looks different as well.




Image from K-On movie - 73m32s


The elevator buttons too.




Image from K-On movie - 68m02s


One place that's still similar is the restaurant.




Image from K-On movie - 68m03s


This is where Yui and Azusa ate breakfast.




Image from K-On movie - 68m14s


Parts of the room has been painted green, but you can still see the matching bits.




Image from K-On movie - 68m07s


I also had some toast with jam while here.




Image from K-On movie - 64m03s


This view can also be seen from the hotel. This is the view towards the south. The window I looked out of here were in a slightly different position so I couldn't get the whole view on the left, but the right side matches.




Image from K-On movie - 59m30s


Same view again where you can see this matching building in the middle of the anime shot. I stayed in a twin room, of which none have a view towards the south, but I got these pictures from a window in an emergency stairway.




Image from K-On movie - 59m37s


The outsides of West Brompton Station were under renovations the last time I visited, but this time I got a proper picture.




Image from K-On movie - 60m49s


While in London I also got this shot inside the Sherlock Holmes museum I missed the last time in London. This is the view from the window in the stairwell between the middle and upper floor of the museum. I've marked a path between Hotel ibis London Earl's Court and this museum in the map below.

The Eccentric Family - Hampstead Heath Revisit

Since visiting Hampstead Heath the first time, they've shown Parliament Hill located there in a later episode of season 2 of The Eccentric Family as well, so I went to have another look.



Image from S2E9 - 14m49s


You can get a good view of London from Parliament Hill, including a view of The Shard as seen on the left.




Image from S2E9 - 14m53s


View towards the Parliament Hill Fields Athletics Track. A lot more leaves on the trees when I was here, so more of the track was covered up.




Image from S2E9 - 14m56s


Nidaime sitting on one of the benches at Parliament Hill. All the old benches that looked more like the one he sits on seems to have been removed in 2015 and replaced with new ones in different positions, so this is a picture of the closest one now.




Image from S2E9 - 15m09s


Benten walking up the hill. This picture is from closer to where the bench where Nidaime sits used to be.




Image from S2E9 - 15m19s


The path here is different.

Kinmoza! - London Revisit

Since I was going to London again, I decided to get 2 more shots from Kiniro Mosaic I had missed the first time I were in London, one from the first season and another from the second (Hello!! Kin-iro Mosaic).



Image from S2E2 - 21m43s


This is at Threadneedle Street near Bank Station. This shot from the season 2 ED is actually flipped in the show.




Image from S2E2 - 21m43s


Here's the picture like it is in real-life. The Bank of England main building is on the left here and The Royal Exchange on the right.




Image from S1E1 - 00m56s


This pub called Sawyers Arms is located near Paddington Station. The place is a darker shade of green in real life, but you can see the red awning and the sign for the pizza place in the background to the left in the picture. I've marked a path from The Bank of England to this place in the map below.
