royal parks

Monarch's public gardens

Royal parks are public green spaces owned by the Crown, particularly the eight historic parks in London including Hyde Park, Regent's Park, and Kensington Gardens.

Originally royal hunting grounds, they're now managed for public recreation while remaining Crown property.

The term sometimes applies to similar crown-owned parklands in other Commonwealth nations.
