Welcome To My Home Page This page is the home page of my Regent's Park pages.. I have other pages such as a a poem about the history of London, and I plan on having other London pages one day including other Royal parks . I have begun with Regents Park. I have lived in London all my life except for five years in India when I was aged 7 to 12. There are pages on this too. If you love London and want to know more about it whether you are a Londoner or someone who has never been here but would like to visit , these pages are for you. Regents Park is over 400 acres and has lots of delightful places in it. There is the lake, there is Queen Mary's Gardens, there is the zoo, there are wide open green spaces for walking dogs and playing football , there are formal gardens and less formal ones and there is a host of wildlife, squirrels, herons, ducks, swans and more Among the magnificent ornaments of our metropolis", wrote The Times in 1825,"the Regents Park ranks high in point of utility as well as beauty and is an invaluable addition to the comforts and pleasures of those who reside in the northwest quarter of London It is no small praise to the commissioners of woods and forests that this park is under their special direction. although from the various difficulties they have neccesarily encountered they have been unable to carry out every part of their plan they have done enough to entitle them to the lasting thanks of a grateful public." |

| Here are some of my non Regents Park sites |
My Park Pages On the links list on "favourite links" on the left in the green background you will find a map of Regent's Park. But here is an explanation of the pages that you will find by clicking on the links on the left. The first page shows the entrance to the park from Baker Street.The entrance The Second shows Walk number One .It continues as you walk beyond the band stand and towards the gate that leads you to the Inner Circle. Just cross the road and you are into the rose garden.Two more pages reveal the lake in the Rose Garden and the Roses through the seasons. But Walk number Two instead of taking you over the bridge takes you along the East side of the lake a walk to the east.After walking across Marylebone Green you come to the formal Avenue Gardens and the Ronald Rae statues. Walk number Three a walk to the westtakes you West of the Lake towards the Mosque and the Childrens Playground.There you can hire a boat, or walk past the sports fields or visit the zoo and Primrose Hill. |
