Covent Garden Treasure Hunt - Observation Questions

Covent Garden is a fantastic area in which to hold a treasure hunt. We start close to the river and we send you off into some wonderful old streets lined with buildings that you would never dream still existed.

On the walls are old plaques commemorating long dead residents. They make the perfect challenge for you to find the answers to the observations questions that we set you as you make your way around the Covent Garden Treasure Hunt route.

One of the highlights of this treasure hunt is when you arrive at Covent Garden Market itself. You've probably seen it many times and have no doubt visited it an awful lot. But have you stopped to look at it closely?

On this treasure hunt you will have to do just that. You will need to peek into every nook and cranny. You will go up stairs and into dusty old corners. You will find bits of information that you may well have passed time and time again yet probably not noticed.

That is the thing about these treasure hunts. They challenge you to look anew at the streets of London. They encourage you to seek out snippets of information that few people realise is there. You will need to be observant if you are to solve the clues and answer the questions that have been set for you.

You don’t need any great knowledge of the area to be able to find the answers and so this Covent Garden Treasure Hunt can be taken by residents and visitors alike. All you will need is the ability to look around, to see things with a curious eye in order that you might find what you are being directed to do.
