I went for a run this morning through Hyde Park and took a detour to visit the gardens of Kensington Palace. I may have spent more time looking at plants than I spent actually running...
 |
| My favorite, the sunken garden. |
 |
| Kensington Palace. Not super impressive from the outside. |
 |
| The Italian Fountains. Built by Prince Albert for Queen Victoria. |
 |
| I love these massive banks of flowers. |
 |
| The planting strikes me as so English -- obviously highly planned, but in a way that gives the impression of nature (so different from the uber-formality of the French style). |
