Around town: Greenwich park, London... on a sunny June evening

Fancy spending a sunny evening in one of London's most beautiful parks? That's what we did yesterday. Check out these photos from the rolling Royal Park at Greenwich, (South East London) home to the Greenwich meridian 

Time of visit: Monday evening, June 2013

...some photos straight from my iPhone...

Looking over the small boating lake, with views across to the remnants of the old industrial buildings of Greenwich (spot the tall chimneys in the distance) 

Views over the rolling hills across to The City (i.e. the financial district) the Shard is the standout landmark here

Realise this looks like the countryside, but it really is Greenwich park - the building on the hill is where the GMT 'line'  is located 


Looking over the park towards the River Thames & Canary Wharf 

Plenty of quiet spots to sit & relax 

There are some beautiful oak trees in the park
