The Vibe:Central London's green lung, open from dawn to midnight.
Covering 350 acres in the heart of London, the largest central royal park has hosted royal hunts, Crystal Palace exhibitions, political rallies and rock concerts. It remains a defining green lung for Londoners and visitors alike.
Open lawns stretch under plane trees; rowing boats circle the Serpentine. Saturdays bring joggers and horse riders on Rotten Row; Sundays bring speakers on soapboxes at the northeast corner.
