The beautiful Kyoto Garden is an oasis of calm in the heart of Kensington’s Holland Park.
The charming Kyoto Garden is nestled in Holland Park and even features a roaming muster of peacocks (yes, that is the collective noun for a group of peacocks, just in case you were wondering). This unexpected slice of Japanese zen, incidentally, also happens to be exceptionally Instagrammable. (Feature image: @natgovor)
Originally built to celebrate the 1992 Japan Festival in London, this garden is a thing of pure beauty. Who needs a plane ticket to Japan when this is so damn convincing? Get so lost in the pretty trees and Japanese features that you’ll forget you’re just a stone’s throw away from High Street Kensington.
Here it is in all it’s springtime glory:
And yeah, you bet there’s bloomin’ loads of blossom.

Kyoto Garden is always going to be there to bring a bit of zen to your life. It’s free to enter, so we suggest you lucky west Londoners visit as often as you can, whenever you need five minutes of peace.

A little dose of quiet reflection here and you’ll be googling getaways to Japanese monasteries. You’ll really feel at one with nature as you mingle with the local wildlife…
Location: Nestled within Holland Park, Holland Park Ave, Kensington, W11 4UA. There are loads of transport hubs nearby, but we’d recommend High Street Kensington. See it on Google Maps.
Opening hours: The park is open daily from 7.30am until 30 minutes before dusk. If that sounds a little confusing to you, just Google ‘when is dusk’ and the trusty interweb will work it out for you, based on your current date and location.
Price: It’s totally free to enter and always will be.
