Kew Gardens Useful Information
The Royal Botanic Gardens at Kew are one of the most beautiful areas in the city, and a World Heritage Site. In Southwest London (between Kew and Richmond), there are 121 hectares of immaculately landscaped gardens and botanical glasshouses. The Director here is responsible for the largest collection of living plants in the world, employing hundreds of staff and scientists to tend to the millions of specimens. People flock from all over London to take in the stunning natural views here, both locals and visitors to the city.
Kew Gardens has its own London Underground and National Rail station, providing easy access to the gardens. Interestingly, the tube station is the only one in London that is attached to a pub; a door leads from the platform into ‘The Railway’, which is ideal if you have some time to kill before your journey. To get here, you’d need to take the Richmond branch of the District Line (the green one). The station building is a particularly well preserved example of mid-Victorian architecture, in two storeys of yellow brick. It is within the conservation area, which has helped Kew Gardens and the surrounding area preserve its distinctive character. Another option if you’re travelling is to book a Kew Gardens minicab in TW9. Taxis in Kew Gardens run around the clock, and can take you to or from anywhere in the city.
If you fancy visiting the gardens yourself, make the most of it by taking one of the guided tours from a trained volunteer, starting from Victoria Gate. These run from 11am and 2pm every day (apart from Christmas Eve and Day), and are free after you’ve paid the admission fee to the gardens. Kew Palace, located within the grounds, is the smallest of the British royal palaces. It’s the only attraction that’s open permanently that you would be required to pay extra for. Other highlights include the Alpine House, Museums, the Orangery and the Nash Conservatory. For the daring ones amongst you, there is a treetop walk 18 metres above the ground. It can be a bit scary when it sways in the wind, but it’ll give you the best views!
Kew is a lovely part of London, and makes you feel more like you’re in a small, homely town than in a major city. Kew Village has cute rows and parades of shops, as well as restaurants including the Glasshouse. It’s a very desirable place to live, with its easy connections into central London and peaceful surroundings. Many of the properties here are semi-detached townhouses from the late 19th century, when the area was developed around the station. Whatever you’re there for, make sure you’ve organised a Kew Gardens cab in TW9 to completely your journey.
