Kew Gardens

A couple of weeks ago we went here



This is Kew, a lovely leafy village in outer London. In Kew is this unbelievable garden, really a massive green space with endless varieties of plant life, everything from a redwood tree grove to a bamboo forest to rare flowers in old victorian green houses. It's huge, and very nearly makes you forget you're in one of the world's most hectic cities (if it weren't for the Heathrow air traffic overhead). Kew Gardens doesn't make sightseeing agendas for most tourists, and this is a shame.
