Linking Knightsbridge in the west with Piccadilly and Park Lane, the impressive Wellington Arch on Hyde Park Corner stands at the intersection of chic Mayfair and even more fashionable Belgravia, providing an excellent navigation point for exploring the lovely parks of central London.

To the east, there's Green Park, the shopping mecca of Piccadilly and Regent Streets, and the regal grandeur of St James' Park with its landscaped swan lake, ever-so-friendly squirrels and of course Buckingham Palace, a pilgrimage for royal watchers and lovers of British pomp.

In the other direction, is Hyde Park Itself, 350 acres of greenery and one of the city's must-sees, with the Serpentine winding its way through an oasis of peacefulness.
