Even though Green Park is adjacent to Buckingham Palace, I hadn't heard of it and didn't go in search of it -- instead I happened to come across it as my husband and I were on our way to Harrods (I love walking around when on vacation and discovering things). During our trip to London, we ended up walking through Green Park twice; the first time we just walked through, but the second time we had more time to explore. The day we had more time to spend in the park, we saw the Diana Fountain (Diana, as in the Roman goddess), the Queen Victoria Memorial, and of course Buckingham Palace (nothing interesting was happening at Buckingham Palace as we passed by). Although not the most exciting park (to be fair, we didn't spend too much time in the park and probably missed several interesting points of interest), it was still a lovely park and worth walking through.

According to the sign in the park, the garden was acquired by the church of St. John the Evangelist, Smith Square, for the use as a cemetery and was consecrated in July 1731. Interestingly, there used to be quite a bit of grave-robbing here for bodies to be used for dissection. The sign doesn't seem to indicate what happened to the graves since then.

From the huge new illuminated entrance gate by the RVT to the improved landscaping and horse-riding area this park has been massively improved by an excellent scheme brought about with local residents working in cooperation with the council. Add to it the all-weather sports pitch and nearby city farm and this is great place to escape the hustle and bustle of the Vauxhall Cross Gyratory.

Neighboring the River Thames and Victoria Embankment Gardens, Whitehall Garden is yet another testimony to London's interesting and magnificent culture.
