Greenwich Park Playground — Attraction in London

I have been to Greenwich Park several times before but didn’t know about this Playground site until today. Usually people visit (and so did I) to the Royal Observatory and Greenwich Meridian Line and the park around this famous tourist attraction. However, this playground is an absolutely fabulous for kids of different ages.This time of the year (3rd week of August), the playground is surrounded by trees, seperated by a fence from the main park. It's greenery. It has everything like Sandpit with water through pump, slides, swings, climbing structures for different ages, small tree houses etc. My kids loved it. There is a small pond next to the Playground and it offeres boating for both kids and adults. Boating time varies, it was closed when we been there in a weekday evening.

A historical piece of land with vast space of greenery with a spectacular view of Canary Wharf and Docklands and some parts of the Thames.

Perfect to cycle in this area and for children to explore during lock down or any...

Large open green space, easy to get lost in! At the top of the hills the flower paeks with the deer enclosure, the coffee shop, the Greenwich observatory, and the statue of Wolf (1930). There are to main ways down the hill from the observatory, down the crowded boring steps with the hoi poloi, or running down the hill with the kids, the latter is much more fun, less fun and faster. At the bottom of the hill is greenwich village (market, shops, Cutty sark, maritime museum, eateries, pubs, Thames ferries, walk under the Thames and lots more). Also at the bottom of the hill is a little boating lake and a decent kids play area. A nice big park and associated area that you can park in and stroll around for hours. Oh, and the view of the Docklands is...
