Regent's Park
Royal London park
Regent's Park is a large royal park in north London, covering about 400 acres and featuring formal gardens, a boating lake, an open-air theater, and the London Zoo.
Designed by John Nash in the early 19th century, it was originally intended as a pleasure ground for the Prince Regent (later George IV) and opened to the public in 1835.
The park gives its name to the surrounding affluent neighborhood and a London Underground station.
