The Green Park is a Royal Park beside Buckingham Palace, between Piccadilly and the palace. Its open lawns and mature plane and lime trees give it a quieter, simpler feel than parks with lakes and formal flower beds. Walk the tree-lined avenues, pause at the Canada Memorial and RAF Bomber Command Memorial, or find a patch of grass for a picnic. In spring, daffodils spread across the lawns. Green Park station opens directly into the park, making it an easy stop on a walk between nearby landmarks.
A green route beside Buckingham Palace
