Review of Regent´s Park (London)

I had to organise an event at Regents Park recently which meant many, many planning visits!! I must now be qualified as a Park guide! The standards throughout the park are excellent, from the lawns and wonderful floral displays to the many cafes, all well maintained by friendly, helpful staff. Its a great day our for all the family with lots to occupy you. Feeding the ducks and the very cheeky tame squirrels provides hours of entertainment, there ...
...bandstand, the open air theatre, children's playgrounds, the heron island and of course the beautiful flowers - there are often special events advertised throughout the park or details from the main park office in the Inner Circle.

Review of Regent´s Park (London)

A glorious way to spend a summer afternoon with something for everyone. Seems to be the tourist's idea of London.

It is one of those ...

Review of Regent´s Park (London)

Dispite the dreadful weather, if there is a dry day the Open Air Theatre in Regents Park is a wonderful place to visit. The Park itself is an excellent place to wander around and have a lazy afternoon. This year the programme seems interesting with A Mid Summers Nights Dream and Alice in Wonderland being part of the session. Don't forget there is London Zoo close by, as are Madame Tausauds and the Planetarium. And not very far is the Wallace Colletion ...
