kensington gardens,

A vast, rolling space, this popular park features well-maintained sidewalks for runners, walkers, and rollerbladers; fields full of soccer players; and plenty of room for relaxed lounging. The park also has several art galleries on the grounds, a statue of Peter Pan (his creator lived nearby), the Round Pond, elaborate sunken gardens, and of course, Kensington Palace. A great place for a stroll and to see sights from the past mingling with the culture of today's London.
