MY day trip
The Royal Botanical Gardens
The Royal Botanic Gardens at Kew, London, grows more species in its 121 hectares than any other garden in the world, and has a long and distinguished history. It's a great family day out.
As a UNESCO World Heritage Site, these magnificent London gardens, glasshouses and galleries are a living exhibit as well as an important historical legacy. Kew Gardens' modern history really begins in the century when Henry VII moved his court to Richmond Palace in the summer months, and nearby Kew village flourished. Since 1840 Kew Park has been open to the public and is without a doubt the most impressive London garden.
Given the size of this London attraction, Kew Gardens could easily be a complete day out in itself - bring a picnic or use one of the four restaurants and cafes. A walking tour is a good way to experience the magnificent range of plants from the rainforest through to desert.
