🥾 Easy
Large enough to get lost in, Richmond Park is the one place in London you can really leave the urban sphere behind and enjoy open skies above your head. The deer in the park are amazing to see in person, they don't seem to mind you being there a whole lot; the males are particularly impressive, but give them their space. The wildlife in the park is what makes it so special. There is nothing more beautiful than a sunrise across Richmond Park - if you can get here in the morning you'll never forget it.
