It joins Hyde Park; the Peter Pan statue is on the north bank. Not also Hampstead the same day. Next is Kensington Palace — do not also stack Regent's Park the same day.
Analysis
Kensington Gardens is a walk, not a photo stop. About 06:00 to dusk. Gate hours and lawn hours differ. Be out toward Queensway before dark, and do not use the park as a shortcut into the next district.
Best time
Morning
How to go
Queensway or Lancaster Gate
Transit
The park has no ticket gate. The station is Queensway. Leave before the last train, and do not cross the grass after dark.
Season window
Spring is blossom at Kensington Gardens, summer picnics are crowded, autumn light is the point, winter dusk is early. In rain stay on the paved main path.
Tips
- · Tickets: Free. Plan about 40 minutes.
- · The Round Pond to the palace is flat
- · Lawns at Kensington Gardens can close at short notice. Dogs, bikes and picnics follow that day's notice. No large speakers.
