The Regent’s Park

I have not been here in years, but was delighted to grace its presence on New Years Eve.
This was are end destination from cycling from North West London. We took pictures in on front of the Great Black and Gold Gate and had lunch at Regents bar and kitchen after we said our goodbyes I headed off and had a gentle ride around the large lake. Even though it got quite chilly families were out, feeding pigeons and Swans. Runners were still out as well.
I used to go collage near here and never knew a Royal Park was so close by.
I can’t wait to return and really take it all in-​but in warm weather.

One of the best parks in London. A great mixture of open green space, bodies of water, elegant bridges, beautiful gardens, and wild life. It’s a perfect mixture of exquisiteness of horticulture and breathtaking beauty of the wilderness. The park is great for walks and never as packed and touristy as Hyde Park. I highly recommend it for all seasons!

Beautiful park in Central London and definitely one of my favourites. There is so much to see there. During the spring, the place is absolutely blooming with flowers. It’s a wonderful place for a picnic, in summer the Open Air Theatre is on which is brilliant and of course the zoo is right next door. Then you’ve got Primrose Hill at one end and views from there can’t be beat! Love this place

Such a lovely park for an afternoon stroll. So many beautiful paths and so much to see! The trees looked especially beautiful yesterday with the fall colors and sunshine. Many families walking enjoying the sights. Highly recommend!

Everyone has a favorite park, and Regents Park is mine. I’m currently new to London, I discovered this park just yesterday during an Acro Yoga session. My favorite part is the lake, which is small in comparison to Hyde Park, but its cute. Not to mentioned it’s elaborate gardens and wildlife, hidden all within. It’s everything you could possibly wish for: fancy flower beds and wild green spaces, sports fields, cafes, open air theater and a zoo — what’s not to love?! If you’re a tourist with limited time, forget Hyde Park… THIS is the must-​see Royal Park destination.
You can spend hours here, when feeling blue. It’s a great place to come and dwell in your thoughts, or to watch people, or with friends a picnic or boat ride.

A really nice park to stroll through. First time here and I have to say, there are not-​so-​pretty parts where the grass is unkept and I certainly wouldn’t go so far to say as this area is breathtaking, but it seems practical for the locals on their morning runs, and group sporting activitoes and has easy to access cafes and has enough space that you can forget for a few seconds that you’re in London.

Regent’s Park is definitely worth visiting. It is such a relaxing spot of town, and there are plenty of photo opportunities as well! There is a lot to see and do, so you won’t get bored here.
My friends and I had a low-​key afternoon exploring the park, and finished the day with the stunning view from Primrose Hill.

This is a massive park with amazing flowers and plenty of wild birds and squirrels. The area is so vast that it even holds events every so often throughout the year such as Taste of London. Plenty of people come here mainly to relax /​sunbathe, walk their dogs, jog, look at the flowers, have a picnic and even birdwatch. I love feeding the squirrels at the park as they are so tame I suppose they are so tame as they are used to the amount of people visiting the area each day. Best park in London.

Le par’ est immense et absolument magnifique.
Longue bande de pelouse ou se prélasser quand la météo le permet, des fleurs et des arbres de partout, un très beau portail, un grand lac où faire du pédalo.
C’est blindé le weekend, familles et groupes d’amis s’y retrouvent pour buller loin de la folie des grandes avenues qui se trouvent juste à coté. Ou alors il y a l’option théâtre en plein air avec un assez grand choix de pièces, surtout en été. Et sinon c’est les sportifs qui en profite le matin, au calme.

My absolute favorite park in London… yep, it’s even better than the more ‘iconic’ Hyde Park.
Elaborate gardens and wildlife and lakes and tranquil, hidden nooks all within Zone 1. If you’re a tourist with limited time, forget Hyde Park… THIS is the must-​see Royal Park destination.

The parks are what makes London such a perfect city and help survivial in The Big Smoke. Regent’s Park is one of the biggest parks and has always been a favourite. It has recently been rebranded The Regent’s Park and I can only hope no branding consultants were paid a fortune of taxpayers money for this … still, there is only one Regent’s Park in London and it offers everything you could possibly wish for: fancy flower beds and wild green spaces, sports fields, cafes, an open air theatre and a zoo — what’s not to love?!
It occasionally hosts exciting events like the Innocent Fair — loved it, what a shame this showcase for eco friendly inventions was discontinued — or Frieze Art Fair every Autumn.
And when you think you’ve seen it all you realise that parts of the park are not open to the public — I only recently discovered Park Square and Park Crescent during Open Garden Squares Weekend.

I held an event in Regent’s Park once. It was a geeky meet-​up for Sonic the Hedgehog fans, which involved picnicking, drawing and a tournament for those with a particular portable games console. I am pleased to say it went down a storm! The group had many laughs and frolics in the sunshine, before retiring to the Horse & Groom pub on nearby Great Portland Street when the sun started going down.
Regent’s Park is mesmerising. It’s literally acres and acres of gorgeous (yet greatly varying) scenery. There are beautiful flower arrangements literally everywhere (I actually threw shade on poor St James Park about this on my review it), people playing sports, water feature. This park has, just, SO much going for it. And at a skip and a jump from places like Baker Street and Camden Town you really can’t fault it on location! Awesome.

There are so many parts to Regent’s Park — in the north corner is London Zoo, accessible via Camden Town tube station and Gloucester Gate, and the children’s playground, west of the Zoo is the Hub, with its café and sports facility (where star gazers gather monthly), to the more well known areas down in the south corner, where you will find the tennis courts, rose gardens, the Open Air Theatre and the Boating Lake, accessible via Regent’s Park or Baker Street tube stations. Towards the west, other lovely areas via Hanover Gate, where families picnic and young children enjoy the paddle boats, and adventure playground. And remember the annual Taste of London and other events, i.e. charity fun runs, and summer screenings, are here too, and even the Gorilla Circus Flying Trapeze School! So take your pick, or just relax in the many open grassy areas.

My favorite Royal Park in London. It’s near Primrose Hill and Camden Town and absolutely lovely once you settle in. I’m glad we skipped Madame Tussauds and landed here. Tranquil and not as busy as Hyde’s Park or St. James. You forget you are close to the center of London. Even in the cold, bitter March, with decent weather by London standards, this place feels summery. Great for people-​watching. People taking their kids and pets for a stroll or to the London Zoo. Queen Mary’s Gardens is beautiful. There are places to eat (Steakhouse and Expresso Bar). Very envious of the people that live close by.

Beautiful park — you don’t feel like you are in the busy centre of London!
Great for a wander around the lake (where you can rent pedalos).
Also tennis courts for the active!
The real treasure is in the inner circle — Alexandra gardens. Beautiful rose garden, lovely pond with waterfall and island, open air theatre and a nice café with a good menu!
Looking forward to going back for a picnic!

Regents Park is a new one for me as we’ve just moved up to NW London and it’s a straight route through on the Bakerloo Line.
I wouldn’t normally review a park, especially one like Regent’s Park, which is pretty self explanatory. But as I was walking through trying to find a big patch of green for the dog to run around on I encountered a super friendly ‘park keeper’? I’m not sure — but he either worked for the park or made it his life’s mission to know everything about it. We also talked about dog leads. But he told me where I could find some space and also directed me away from the Wildfowl area (more for the safety of the birds than anything else!) But yeah. Park; big green expanse of land, some wildfowl. Not one of my favourites in London, but it does the job.

This place is literally a Paradise!
It’s peaceful and beautiful! For those who love roses as me: you will adore Regent’s park!
So many colors, smells. you’ll definitely love it!

Le Regent’s Park est un de nos endroits favoris à Londres. On adore les parterres de fleurs à perte de vue, le grand lac qui permet des balades paisibles et même des aventures en pédalo.
Un vrai moment de détente dans un cadre exceptionnel.

Of the four parks — Regent’s, Green, St. James, and Hyde — I’ve been to in London, Regent’s my favorite in its aesthetic appearance! It’s very BIG, spacious, and COLORFUL! I came here during the summer time, so the flowers were in full blossom! BRIGHT and GORGEOUS COLORS and GREAT variety of BEAUTIFUL flowers! Also, the floral fragrance in the air definitely creates a very relaxing and light mood!
Two of my favorite spots are the Queen Mary’s Rose gardens and the lake! The Rose garden is very beautifully oriented and constructed! It felt MAGICAL strolling through the cleanly cut bushes and well — designed layout of the garden of aesthetics. Besides the lovely flowers, there are also majestic, tumbling waterfalls adding more beauty to the park!
I always love water and lakes! This is a very clean and calming one! People could also go boating on the lake and it can be very fun and soothing or romantic and lovely!
This park is definitely worth checking out, so come here, enjoy the moment, and snap some pics!

Dire quel est son parc londonien préféré, c’est un peu comme choisir entre le Nesquik et le Banania. Une question de goût, quoi. Et entre Hyde Park et Regent’s Park, j’ai choisi mon camp: ce dernier remporte la mise.
Cet immense espace vert en plein coeur de la ville parvient à vous faire oublier que l’on se trouve au centre d’une des plus grandes métropoles mondiales — ce qui est déjà un sacré bonus. Pris d’assaut par les familles le week-​end, c’est un formidable espace de promenade les matins de semaine, totalement calme et d’une beauté étonnante.
Au rayon des activités sympas :
— les longs parcours de footing, qui donnent envie de se mettre au sport (oui c’est possible),
— les tours de barque (pas donné, comptez autour de 8 livres) sur le lac, pour les romantiques,
— le théâtre à l’air libre, pour les cultivés,
— et surtout, les terrains de sport disponibles un peu partout, si on s’enfonce un peu plus (il faut dépasser le lac). Football, volley et tant d’autres se pratiquent à longueur d’année.
Le must? Regarde les gentlemens tout en blanc jouer au cricket autour du Hub, tandis que leurs cockers courent un peu partout. So british.

Quel charmant parc au combien paisible. Regen’ts Park que je connaissais encore mal avant que je retourne récemment à Londres, à ponctuer mes deux dernières heures avant de prendre le train du retour.
Le Zoo de la ville se trouve à l’intérieur à l’extrémité nord, les activités sont nombreuses comme le fait de pouvoir se balader en barque sur le lac. Je me suis contenté de simplement marcher, jouer avec les écureuils pas du tout apeurés, passer et admirer les splendides jardins de fleurs dont le Queen Mary’s Rose Garden.

If I ever needed to propose to someone, I would totally do it in Regent’s Park, right after I finish scoffing at society’s expectations of gender roles.
I would probably do it by the old cast-​iron bandstand, next to all the weeping willows and swans. No– I’d do it in the topiary garden, in front of one of the epic fountain-​statues. No wait – I’d do it in the middle of the London Zoo, because who doesn’t want a thousand monkeys and camels and giraffes to witness the most important moment on your Facebook timeline. I can’t decide. Whoever I wind up marrying will just have to deal with multiple proposals, because my Instagram needs this.
But even if you’re not trying to propose, Regent’s Park is one of the best things about living in London. Everything is always impeccably maintained, and there’s space for recreational activities. I think I’ve spotted Quidditch games a few times. If I lived closer, I would run here everyday. Also, if I was anywhere near physically fit and motivated to run everyday, but that’s another story…

Had a great picnic dinner here with my husband in late July. Weather was perfect, roses in bloom.
We did a lazy picnic and ordered the picnic dinner from Paul down the street. They give you sandwiches/​salad, two drinks and two delicious desserts in a cooler bag with utensils and a paper tablecloth. It was adorable and only 15 pounds! Great idea for a cheap date night. Pick up a bottle of wine to top it off. Drinking in parks in London is legal!
Afterwards we walked around the gardens and had a great relaxing time. We will definitely do it again when we get our «real» picnic basket!

One of my favorite places in the entire world!!!
This natural habitat full of flora and fauna and animals running about!
This is a happy place — take a relaxing break and go here to be amazed by the natural beauty!
The café is also delicious and a perfect stop for a quick bite after a long walk!!!

Este é definitivamente um dos meus lugares favoritos de Londres. É tão gostoso, lindo e cheio de história como o resto da cidade.
Claro que muitos entram por uma das entradas laterais e até chegarem ao Queen’s Garden ou ao lindo lago no centro do parque não entendem o porque de tanto amor, mas enquanto você caminha e observa as árvores, aproveita o lugar e o momento
em que você está, é tudo mágico.
Meu passeio favorito por aqui foi no inverno, um dia LINDO de sol em Londres (que já é raro). Estava muito frio, mas ainda assim nos aventuramos e passeamos (tremendo) pela cidade. Entramos por perto da saída do metrô Regent’s Park (da Bakerloo line) e caminhamos até o outro lado para ver o por-​do-​sol no Primrose Hill.
Que delícia!!!
Londres tem algum encanto que faz qualquer um se apaixonar. Não sei se está no ar, na água ou na sua história e o Regent’s Park não é diferente.

Jeder kennt den Hyde Park, aber nicht jeder kennt den Regent Park.
Ich finde ihn wunderschön. Wunderschön und sehr groß und eben und hügelig mit Bäumen und Rasen für Erholungssuchende mit vielen Bänken und einem See.
Und in diesem See gibt es ein Schwanenpäärchen und jeder der Märchen kennt und auch das Märchen vom häßlichen Entlein, daß sich in einen wunderschönen Schwan auswächst, hat immer die weißen Schwäné vor Augen. Aber wer hat den schon schwarze Schwäné gesehen?
Ich!
Man muß nicht unbedingt so weit fahren.
Es gibt sie auch in einem Park in Bad Lippspringe.
Aber zum ersten Mal habe ich sie in Regent Park in London gesehen.

Le Regents Park a beau être plus petit qu’Hyde Park, je le trouve cependant beaucoup plus agréable, plus paisible, plus intimiste tout en restant quand même bien assez grand !
Le lac, les jardins fleuris, les pelouses impeccables (et autorisées), les écureuils pas vraiment farouches comment né pas succomber à ce havre de tranquillité?

Ich habe niemals in meinem Leben einen so wundervollen Park gesehen.
Spazieren macht hier einen unglaublichen Spaß.
Sauber und gepflegt ganz anders als in Deutschland.

Sehr schöner Park, ruhiger als der Hyde Park. Es gibt viele Blumen und andere Pflanzen. Ist auch sehr gut geeignet, um einige typische Parkbilder aufzunehmen.

Grand parc (le deuxieme) qui a surtout son interet pour y arbiter le zoo

Wunderschöner Platz um sein Lunch zu verzehren und anschließend einen Spaziergang zu machen. Auch toll für Kinder, es gibt einen großen Spielplatz. :)

Un magnifique parc en pleine ville. Vaut le détour.

Un magnifique parc, vraiment pas si petit que ça! Il y a une foule de choses à voir… magnifiques jardins fleuris, statues, fontaines, et surtout, les oiseaux.
Un endroit vraiment calme et reposant où il fait bon se coucher dans l’herbe avec un bon bouquin, ou certainement passer un peu de bon temps avec ses amis.

Petit parc bien sympathique de Londres
Espace vert, brin de nature
A voir

Ich kann es auch nur empfehlen diesem Park
einen Besuch abzustatten!
Sehr schöné angelegte Fläschen mit Blumen usw.
sowas gefällt mir immer sehr gut.

Oui effectivement Regents Park est plus petit que Hyde Park mais ça n’empêche qu’il est toujours très grand. L’autre jour je voulais rejoindre des amis qui jouaient au foot là-​bas et j’ai pris ¾h pour les retrouver. Tout ça pour dire qu’il y a largement la place pour se reposer, pour faire une bonne balade, picknicker avec des amis ou aller à un des théâtres ou concerts open-​air. La partie circulaire est particulièrement jolie avec toutes les roseraies et autres fleurs plantées un peu partout. Et c’est sympa parce qu’il y a des petites pancartes indiquant leur nom. Pour le côté pédagogique
C’est là qu’on trouve les cafés, le théâtre open-​air, la pavillon où ont lieu des concerts open-​air et tout et tout. Il y a aussi le lac où on peu louer des bateau pour faire un petit tout. Un peu plus loin le parc devient moins peuplés. Là il y a encore plus de pelouses pour faire des foots, du cricket ou d’autres sports d’équipe. Sinon en famille, une excursion au zoo s’impose!
Bref un endroit vraiment sympa et plus intime que Hyde Park.

Petit que Hyde Park et je dirai plus sympa aussi. Il fait plus anglais and plus accueillant et au moins, retrouver ses amis né semble pas etre un cas desespere
Il y a une petite aire de jeux pour les enfants et on peut y acheter des glaces superbes. Les fontaines sont sympas aussi pour des batailles d’eau impromptues et j’ai entendu dire que le theatre en plein air valait vraiment le coup d’y aller.

Dieser Park ist sehr schön bepflanzt mit kleinen Springbrunnen und gtrimmten Hecken. Darüber hinaus gibt es aber auch riesige Flächen auf denen man Sport teiben kann. Am Wochenende sind dort immer viele Fussballer. Aber auch für die Unterhaltung der kleinen ist mit einem super schönen Spielplatz gesorgt. Ausserdem ist der London Zoo gleich um die Ecke.

Stretching from the London zoo all the way to Notting Hill, Regents Park is a delight. It has formal gardens with beautifully ordered planting and an array of colour. Its has large lawns covered by spruces and oaks and a lovely lake you can paddle in. It’s a lovely central meeting point with loads of things to do and a landscaped so varied, you can visit 10 times and not believe it’s the same place you are visiting! In summer they have an open air theatre with plays of a number of genre rotating through the season.
This park still feels regal and is worth a visit to steep yourself in some history while having an enjoyable time!
