London Holiday

My holiday in London was one of the best experience in my life. It will never fade in my memory. I was amazed with the famous structures, historical royal palaces, and museums. It was really surprising because wherever you are in the capital, there's always a park or garden nearby. London maybe the greenest city in the world. London is sure to have the 'kind of green' that you need.

Whether you're looking for some wild space where you can go horse riding, or you just want a deck chair for sunbathing, or tired on museums, busy shops and noisy streets, give yourself a break and try rowing a boat in Hyde Park or walking through London's beautiful parks or gardens.
