- 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.
