London Treehouse Overlooks Regent's Canal

Another image from Flickr showing a childs treehouse overlooking Regent's Canal in London, England. This little place is a cute shelter and no doubt a rare pocket of heaven in the eyes of the inhabitant.

I find it surprising that a someone in London built a treehouse. And the way the large white building, what looks like row housing , dwarfs the tree. The house has several windows facing out to the canal with good views, yet the treehouse seems to be the preferred setting for gazing at the scenery.

There is something about being in a tree and over a garden that makes the experience unique. For a kid to climb up the ladder to watch canal traffic from there, a little alternate universe framed by civilization, must be a special treat.
