Entry is completely free with no ticket required. Bring your own snacks and a blanket for an impromptu picnic instead of buying from the pricey park cafe.

Acerca de

Datos rápidos: El parque de 17 acres se encuentra en un terreno que una vez fue parte de los terrenos del Palacio de Buckingham y originalmente era un jardín real privado. Más de 5 millones de personas recorren sus sinuosos senderos cada año, lo que lo convierte en uno de los espacios verdes más visitados de Londres.

Destacados: Mire con atención cerca del Jardín Italiano y verá una pequeña lápida de un perro llamado "Gander" que perteneció a un soldado canadiense y murió durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial. El parque también tiene un rincón tranquilo donde puede observar cómo se cuentan los cisnes reales durante la ceremonia anual "Swan Upping", una tradición que se remonta a siglos atrás.

Consejos de expertos

  • Enter through the lesser-known Marlborough Gate entrance near St. James's Palace to skip the busier Queen Victoria Memorial side.
  • The best photo spot is from the Blue Bridge across the lake, where you can frame both the park greenery and the London Eye in one shot.
  • Avoid the main lawn on sunny weekends when it gets packed; head to the quieter flower garden area near the bird sanctuary instead.
  • Bring binoculars to spot the parakeets that have made the park's plane trees their home, especially around dusk.
