REGENT'S PARK
Go there and contact
This immense 166-hectare park was designed by John Nash in 1811. Nicknamed "the jewel in the crown", Henry VIII used it as a hunting ground until 1646. It was John Nash who modified its appearance, creating sumptuous terraces, a lake and a canal, lined with villas, of which only 8 were finally built out of the 56 planned. In the early 20th century, Queen Mary's Gardens was added. Regent's Park features over 400 varieties of roses, fountains and sculptures... You'll find a sports course, one of the largest outdoor sports facilities in London, with a soccer pitch and a cricket pitch, among others. Also within the park is London Zoo, home to a collection of 755 species of animals, making it one of the largest collections in the UK... To the west, the dome and minarets of London's central mosque can be seen on the horizon. Primrose Hill, just to the north of Regent's Park and a little higher up, offers a beautiful view of the whole of London. The park is also crossed by the charming Regent's Canal, which you can wander up and down. One of London's most pleasant parks, it's the perfect place for a picnic when the weather's right. As soon as the weather warms up, the English come out to stroll and laze in the sun. Regent's Park is also home to the famous Open Air Theatre, which presents classic plays in a bucolic, original and poetic setting.
