Visit Richmond, Surrey For A Vacation Fit For A King
Richmond - Surrey is a suburban town that lies just fifteen miles southwest of London right on the River Thames. A longtime favorite retreat of European royalty, today the lush landscape, lavish gardens and public parks draw tourists from all around the world.
Hampton Court Palace has a history that stretches back five centuries and it was a private playground for Tudor King Henry VIII who spent lavishly on the appointments including priceless artwork and opulent tapestries. People travel from far and wide to lose themselves in the elaborate garden maze on the grounds.
The area around the River Thames is bustling with restaurants and bars. The Thamesside walkway offers foot access to businesses and residences. Tracks on both river banks attract pedestrians, joggers and cyclists.
To the south of the bridge sits Richmond Hill and the stretch of river below that is called Horse Reach. Glover's Island can be found here. Skiffs are available for rent and tour boats leave hourly.
Southeast of town lies the largest royal park in the land. Enclosed by Charles I for hunting purposes, it was designated a National Nature Reserve in 2000 and is listed as a Site of Special Scientific Interest. It is home to herds of red and fallow deer.
Town center is concentrated around George and Hill Streets with their high end shops and designer boutiques. There are no indoor shopping malls in Richmond. The farmers market is held every Saturday with traders selling their wares including vegetables, baked foods, dairy products and meat. Narrow alleyways lead to The Green.
The main green has been the site of cricket matches, tournaments and archery contests since 1650 and attracts sunbathers and nature lovers whenever weather permits. Little Green is located opposite the Richmond Theatre. The Green offers access to Old Deer Park, 360 acres of lawns, municipal sports pitches and athletic grounds that reach all the way to the edge of the Royal Botanic Gardens at Kew. Here is where you will find observatory built for King George III in 1769.
Old Palace Lane leads down to the riverside and passes Maids of Honours Row. This series of three story houses was built in 1724 for use by the royal wardrobe servants of the wife of George II.
With its rich history and gorgeous scenery, Richmond is the perfect destination for vacationers who wish to walk in the footsteps of royalty and explore the banks of the River Thames.
