Lose yourself in the beauty of the Palace Gardens

See exotic plants and flowers by taking a tour of the Palace Gardens. Visit the Sunken Garden, a hundred-year-old garden with its dynamic horticultural displays. Numerous flowers and plants from the Victorian era have been put on display this year. Looking for a shaded place with good views? The Cradled Walk is the answer. Conceal yourself from the sun and watch the gardens sparkle in a wide range of colours. Remember to explore the Formal Gardens too before taking the London walking tour; it was the playground for the Royal Family’s little ones. The gardens are well-maintained and look just as refreshing today as they did then.
