An Enchanting Walk Through 4 Royal Parks! 🌳

London is blessed with 8 magnificent Royal Parks, each with its own unique character and charm. 🌿 We embarked on a fantastic walking adventure along an extended trail that took us through four of these stunning green spaces in one glorious go! 🚶‍♀️🚶‍♂️ Here was our amazing route: We started our journey in Kensington Gardens (right by the majestic Albert Memorial ✨) and walked across the Serpentine Bridge to enter... Hyde Park! 🦢 From there, we continued through Hyde Park Corner and moved onwards into... Green Park, passing by the world-famous Buckingham Palace! 🏰 Finally, we arrived at our last park... St. James's Park, exiting at the Whitehall gate. The entire trail is lovely and flat, making it easily accessible for most people. 🛣️ If you walked non-stop, you could probably complete it in about 1 to 1.5 hours. However, we ended up spending a delightful hour and a half in Kensington Gardens alone (which meant we had to cut our time a bit short in St. James's and Green Parks – next time!). ⏱️ A quick tip: There are very few signs within the parks directing you along this specific route. If you're happy with a leisurely, exploratory stroll, you'll be fine! But if you're on a tight schedule or want to hit all the key sights, I highly recommend downloading the trail map from the Royal Parks website beforehand! 📱🗺️ There's so much to see, but the main highlights included: 🏛️ Kensington Gardens: Kensington Palace (£20) The Albert Memorial The Italian Gardens, especially the beautiful white marble Tazza Fountain The Talking Peter Pan Statue 🌹 Hyde Park: Hyde Park Corner & Wellington Arch The Serpentine Lake (we took a lovely break at the Serpentine Lido Café! ☕) The Rose Garden 👑 Green Park: Buckingham Palace The Memorial Gates 🦆 St. James's Park: St. James's Lake & the iconic Blue Bridge The St. James's Pelicans! (Yes, real pelicans! 🐦) #LondonWalkingTour #KensingtonGardens #HydePark #GreenPark #StJamesPark
