St James’s Park
Your local park, and the Queen’s front garden. Threaded with serene bridges and hushed waterways and, from time to time, where you can witness the pomp and ceremony of royal pageantry like the Trooping of the Colour.
Buckingham Palace
At the western tip of The Mall lies the royal residence – home to England’s monarchs since 1837. The daily changing of the Palace’s horse-mounted guards brings a sense of ceremony to every morning.
Tate Britain
The world’s most comprehensive collection of British art, dating back to 1500. Classical works by Constable and Turner mingle with the more contemporary creations of Hockney, Bacon and Blake.
Transport
Westminster Fire Station is a seven minutes’ walk to St James’s Park underground station, linking you with the District and Circle lines. Victoria is equally close-by, where the Victoria line and National Rail connections plug you into the city – and the rest of the country.
