London - Kensington Gardens
A visit to Kensington Palace should be combined with a stroll in Kensington Gardens, once the private gardens of the palace. Laid out in their present form in 1728-31 by Queen Caroline, they include such attractive features as the Sunken Garden, the Flower Walk and the Fountains. As in other royal parks, there are open-air concerts on Sundays in summer.
