Kensington Gardens began their existence in 1689, when William III bought a part of Hyde Park and had Kensington Palace built in red brick. It was Queen Anne who extended the gardens by adding another 30 acres of Hyde Park to it, and she had the Orangery created in 1704. More recently the Diana, Princess of Wales’ Memorial Playground for children has been added. To get to the Kensington Gardens by tube, the nearest stations are High Street Kensington, Notting hill gate or Bayswater, and many buses stop next to the park. The park is very popular with walkers, sun bathers, joggers, picnickers or persons searching for a bit of nature in town. 178 bird species have been identified within the park. Cycling is allowed along certain main paths, to cross the park. Next to the playground there is the Broadway café serving food and drinks from 8am to 8pm. There are also a couple of ponds, an Italian garden, the Albert Memorial and the Serpentine gallery to visit and there are planned events in the park throughout the year.
