Esta estatua de bronce del hombre a caballo se llama Physical Energy y es obra del artista británico George Frederic Watts (1817 - 1904). Watts tenía ideales muy altos para su arte, y pretendía que su trabajo ayudara a la humanidad a abrazar el progreso. La Energía Física es una alegoría de la necesidad humana de nuevos desafíos – de nuestro instinto de estar siempre escaneando el horizonte, mirando hacia el futuro. En palabras del propio artista, es “un símbolo de ese impulso físico inquieto de buscar lo aún no logrado en el dominio de las cosas materiales”.
El nombre del parque proviene de la Mansión de Hyde, que era la subdivisión noreste de la mansión de Eia (las otras dos subdivisiones eran Ebury y Neyte) y aparece como tal en el Domesday Book.
Los Jardines Italianos son una elaborada mezcla de cuatro cuencas principales. Cuentan con rosetones centrales tallados en mármol de Carrara, la fuente de Tazza de piedra Portland y mármol blanco, y una colección de estatuas y urnas de piedra. Vea si puede detectar los cinco diseños principales de urnas: la pechuga de un cisne, la cabeza de una mujer, la cabeza de un carnero, un delfín y un óvalo.
El estanque ornamental encargado por la reina Carolina
Construido por Sir Christopher Wren entre 1789 y 1794. Obra adicional de William Kent. Solo accesible si reservas la opción con Palace Entry
En enero de 2017, los hijos de Diana encargaron una estatua de su madre para el Palacio de Kensington para conmemorar el vigésimo aniversario de su muerte. Ian Rank-Broadley ejecutó la estatua.
Té en el Orangery diseñado por Hawkesmore en 1704

Excellent tour guide sharing history and insights. High tea was amazing. This quite a long walk so please be aware. The grounds are exceptional.
This was an absolutely lovely experience. Our tour guide, Doug was incredible. We viewed the grounds and learned the history of this Palace prior to enjoying our tea and treats. The scones were sensational and all of history behind this beautiful place made the experience so enjoyable. Having the personal touch of a private tour guide was a great bonus. We would highly recommend this experience and are so appreciative to Doug for making this afternoon so memorable for us.
Tour guide Doug Cooper was excellent, engaging and informative. We went on a very nice walk around the gardens along with an educational discussion of the history and activities of the gardens and the palace. Doug also sat with us for tea and explained the customs and background of high tea.
Great tour. Super knowledgeable. Highly recommend this team 5/5 stars.
Had a wonderful time with David through the Kensington Gardens and Palace. We had a great afternoon tea as well! Wonderful with children as well! And very patient!
Thank you Miya for your company on the walk. The children were delightful and I think enjoyed "Dash the Dog" Children's Afternoon Tea as well. I hope they also liked Queen Victoria's Dolls House when they visited the Palace
Simon was so wonderful, so informative and engaging and fun! We had a lovely time, and he was kind and full of history. I’d recommend this tour to anyone visiting London!
Your recommendation means a lot to us. We look forward to seeing your friends next year
Doug was exceptional! His knowledge of the palace and surrounding park were outstanding and he kept us engaged throughout our time with him. The tea was served in a beautiful room with outstanding food that has been the highlight of our time in London. My wife and I would absolutely recommend this tour!
First of all, thank you for taking the time to write us a super review! Our Private Tours are always tailored to your exact needs and conducted by a senior guide. Doug was delighted to be your host. We hope to see you next time you visit London on another Top Tasting Tour.
Simon was an expert on Royal History, which made the experience superb! We visited St James Palace, Buckingham Palace and Kensington Palace, where we had high tea at the Orangery!
Simon really enjoyed being your host. Our private tours always have a senior guide assigned and are tailored to your interests. Thank you on behalf of Top Tasting Tours for your custom
Highly recommend this tour for anyone wanting to be immersed in Hyde park and Kensington palace surrounding including a finish with a beautiful tea service. Very easy to find starting spot. Our guide was already there waiting. Our guide, David took us through Hyde Park pointing out all of the highlights of this beautiful space. Things we would not have known on our own walking through. He was funny and knowledgeable about the park and surrounding area. He did well with our questions. I would definitely recommend this tour for anyone wanting a nice stroll in Hyde park to get hungry, followed by a beautiful and yummy tea service. And if you want to really know how tea is done in Britain, ask your guide to stay for tea service and share a tea and meal with someone who will entertain you with stories through the whole service. Fantastic, one of a kind experience!!!
I appreciate your thoughtful review and hope to see you soon in London
Simon was a wealth of knowledge and charming as can be! We would happily book any tour he leads. Kensington Palace Gardens are beautiful and high tea was lovely.
