But this corner in Hyde Park is best known for its Speaker's Corner, the place where everybody can speak publicly without fear of being arrested for his or her opinions.

On the west, Hyde Park continues with Kensington Gardens. Here stands the Albert Memorial and Kensington Palace. This was completed in 1605 and later Christopher Wren redesigned it. Here lived Princess Diana.

Regent's Park is perhaps London's most elegant park with its attractive gardens, lakes and a zoo. The zoo was founded in 1826 and with its 6000 species it belongs to the most comprehensive collections of animals in the world. LONDON TRANSPORT
