Taylor Swift<\/strong> loved this place for so long, and it seems London loves her back.<\/p>\n

In honor of the pop superstar’s first London Eras Tour performance on Friday, the city has been getting into the Swiftie spirit.<\/p>\n

“Shake It Off” was played during Friday’s changing of the guard, with The Royal Family posting a video<\/a> of the performance to the social platform X.<\/p>\n

“Can’t stop, won’t stop groovin,'” they wrote alongside the video, which is titled “Changing of the Guard (Taylor’s Version).”<\/p>\n

Additionally, the London public transportation service released a new map filled to the brim with Taylor Easter eggs, which they’re calling “Tube Map Taylor’s Version.”<\/p>\n

The map, which is themed to look like friendship bracelets intersecting, features lines that represent each of Taylor’s 11 studio albums. Locations significant to Taylor have a sparkling heart overtop of them \u2014 such as Wembley Stadium, where she’s performing all of her London Eras Tour concerts.<\/p>\n

Other places that received hearts are locations mentioned in Taylor’s songs. “I left all I knew, you left me at the house by the Heath,” Taylor sings in “So Long, London,” referencing the house she lived in near the Hampstead Heath park. That location gets a heart on the map, as do Highgate, Camden Market and the West End, which Taylor sings about on her Lover<\/em> track, “London Boy.”<\/p>\n

Sadiq Khan<\/strong>, the Mayor of London, wrote about the new map<\/a> on the social platform X.<\/p>\n

“This Taylor Swift Tube map has polished up real nice,” Khan wrote. “Whether you are a Londoner or visiting London to see Taylor\u2019s The Eras Tour this weekend, explore London (Taylor\u2019s Version) and visit all the places that inspired her music.”<\/p>\n
