The Journey
Hyde Park & Green Park
Begin your journey in Hyde Park, once King Henry VIII's hunting grounds, now a vast green oasis in the heart of London. Transition to Green Park, a tranquil expanse leading to the majestic Wellington Arch. Together, these royal parks offer a serene escape and a glimpse into London's regal past.
Wellington Arch
Marvel at the Wellington Arch, a Grade I-listed triumphal arch also known as Constitution Arch or Green Park Arch. Originally designed by Decimus Burton, this iconic landmark stands proudly at Hyde Park Corner, marking a significant point in London's architectural landscape and offering stunning views.
Commonwealth Memorial Gates
Reflect at the Commonwealth Memorial Gates, a poignant war memorial located at the Hyde Park Corner end of Constitution Hill. These gates commemorate the service and sacrifice of Commonwealth soldiers during both World Wars, offering a moment of remembrance and historical significance.
Constitution Hill
Stroll along Constitution Hill, a historic road offering panoramic views of Buckingham Palace. Once a private road for royalty, this avenue provides a scenic route with glimpses of regal London and is now famous for the British Thoroughbred racehorse named after it, Constitution Hill.
Clarence House
Pass by Clarence House, the historic London residence of the Royal Family since 1827. Once home to Queen Elizabeth, The Queen Mother, and now the official residence of King Charles III and Queen Camilla, this building is steeped in royal history and tradition.
St. James's Palace
Travel back to the 1500s outside St James's Palace, commissioned by Henry VIII. Today, it remains a key ceremonial venue and houses royal offices. Explore the Tudor architecture and imagine the palace's rich history as a royal residence and administrative center.
