Hyde ParkГайд-паркLondon is full of wonderful parks and Hyde Park is one of them. Situated in the center of London it’s considered to be a royal park. Hyde Park covers over 1, 4 square kilometers or 350 acres. It has a finest landscape and is often used for political meetings or festive celebrations. A long time ago the park belonged to Westminster Abbey and it got its name from an ancient unit of area. Now it has become one of the beloved places of Londoners who just want to have a rest or walk. The main attraction of the park is Serpentine Lake which is open for swimmers, and the gallery of the same name. Other interesting sights in Hyde Park are Apsley House with the Wellington Museum and Wellington Arch. These objects remind about the parade in 1815 in honor of Wellington’s victory over Napoleon. Another sight is the statue of Achilles, which became the first almost naked statue in London and caused uproar of citizens. Queen Victoria chose Hyde Park for holding the first World Exhibition in 1851. Hyde Park is also famous for its Speaker’s Corner. It’s the place where different orators and preachers demonstrate their eloquence. That’s why Speaker’s Corner is considered to be the place where anyone can freely proclaim and state their ideas. Nowadays Hyde Park is also often used for different rock concerts and many famous bands have already played here, among them Queen, Rolling Stones and others.
