Hyde Park & Kensington Gardens
Hyde Park
One of London's largest royal parks. Rowing on the Serpentine, Speakers' Corner, and the Diana Memorial Fountain are all located here.
Hyde Park connects to Kensington Gardens on its western side, and together they cover about 250 hectares. You can rent a boat or watch the swans on the Serpentine. Speakers' Corner in the northeast corner is the traditional site of free public speech. The Princess Diana Memorial Fountain, the Peter Pan statue, the Italian Gardens, and the Serpentine Gallery are all within the park. The park is open daily from about 5:00 to midnight and is free to enter. The Winter Wonderland fairground, held in winter, requires a paid ticket. You can enter from Hyde Park Corner, Marble Arch, or Lancaster Gate on the Underground.
