Formerly a Tudor hunting park, Greenwich Park was redesigned by the Versailles landscaper, Andre Le Note, in the 1660's. Enjoy one of the best views in London from the Royal Observatory hilltop. Brass bands play in the park on summer afternoons and August brings puppet shows to the playground. Roman and Saxon archaeological finds have been made here. A superb day trip, particularly if you take the riverboat from Westminster.
