Our owner Shy lived in London off and on for a number of years and lists Hyde Park as one of his favorite spots in the city. It's a good size and full of trees, urban wildlife, and local people just looking to escape the bustle of the city! In the summer months, if there's even a glimmer of good weather, you'll find locals enjoying some BBQ or time with friends, there's a fair each winter, and an ever evolving set of concerts and festivals to be enjoyed.
It's possible that you'll need to cross the park at some point during your visit to London. If the weather's nice, considering scrapping your plans to take the Tube for a casual jaunt in the park! You'll need to enter the park to visit a few landmarks hidden within.
Planning your trip
On Sundays, the northeastern tip of the park hosts Speaker's Corner, an interesting if intense place to see people really speak their minds on an issue. The borders of the park feature a number of monuments, including the Princess Diana Memorial, Kensington Palace, and historic water features such as the Serpentine.
When you should go
The park is open from 5am through midnight throughout the year. It is exceptionally popular during the warmer months or on any day with good weather.
Dress for the weather, it is an outdoor space. England is part of an island, you might be surprised the changes in weather the city can experience.
What else you might need
There is no fee to enter the park, however there may be activities you'd care to join in which come with an additional cost. For example, Kensington Palace is located within the grounds.
