Hello Steemit friends! As the summer wind's down, what activities have you been up to on the weekend? Hopefully you've taken some time to enjoy some sunshine relaxing in a peaceful and green country park. Some say that the UK is one of the top places for finding the most number of parks, so today I'm taking you to the one of the biggest parks, none other than Hyde Park!

Would you care to guess what activities I get up in these parks during the summer and winter months?

Hyde Park is situated west of Buckingham Palace and occupies about an area of 1.4km². In the 18th Century, Hyde Park was used by the Royal family for deer hunting. Nowadays, it is open to the general public for their own leisure.

The Hyde Park Highlights

The Lecture Corner

The speech corner has been a tradition since 1800, notable people like Marx and Churchill have brought their own wooden boxes to stand on and deliver public speeches. Nowadays, every Sunday is an opportunity for people of all kinds of disciplines to congregate and share their wisdom.

Rememberance Fountain

This Fountain was built in 2004 in remembrance of Diana Princess of Wales. The design is such that when viewed from the top down, resembles a necklace. Under the blazing Sun, it is a nice way to cool off!

Hyde Park's Beauty in Detai

During the beginning months of Summer, Hyde Park is a great place to go admire it's flowers. The colorful flowers give off a really seductive smell, truly bringing out the romantic nature of the setting.

England and London in particular, are famous for it's fog. In the eyes of many from this region, sunshine and warm weather are a rare occurrence and should be treasured. Thankfully, the UK does see a few good days of warm weather and sunshine a year, and during these days, people in London like to come to Hyde Park to sunbathe to their hearts content.

If you're lucky you'll see some mini parties in the Park. Sometimes people dress up as chubby Dinosaurs and chase superwoman riding their bikes. The atmosphere at this point suddenly feels a few degree's warmer !

In the warm summer days, I like to be near cool water. In the middle of Hyde Park, there is a lake called The Serpentine lake where you can row boats on the water. This lake and "The Long Water" divide Hyde Park and Kensington Gardens. (See picture below)

In my eyes, Hyde Park is also an animal Kingdom. In the blink of an eye, a naughty squirrel suddenly appeared in front of me which was a nice surprise!

There are groups of Ducks, Geese and elegant Swans which come to meet me as I walk towards them. It's like they're old friends. I guess that makes sense because i'm Hyde Park's regular visitor, whether its Spring, Summer, Autumn or Winter - I frequently visit to lighten the mood.

I like taking pictures with my friends, so I squat down and get a quick snap with my Duck friends!

Rowing Boats in Summer

Even though Hyde Park doesn't seem very big, to walk around it is actually quite a fair distance. There are three other modes of transport : Horse Riding, Bicycle Rental and last but not least, Rowing boats!

My favorite one is of course rowing! In Hyde Park, the boats don't have any roof, so it's best to avoid rowing when it rains. Rowing in Hyde Park is a perfect opportunity to get close to the animals, as you gently row, the ducks, birds, swans and other birds will swim along side, or often fly by as if they're saying hello!

The Crazy Winter Theme Park

At Christmas, Hyde Park transforms into a Christmas themed fun fair called Winter Wonderland. The park opens from before Christmas, right through to past new year, the whole time it's like one big party event. Every year, I enjoy Winter Wonderland so much that I visit many times.

Taking with my drone Its like a childrens fairy tale, so many different fun things to do, so many games awaiting you to play. As you guys know, I love playing the games where I can win rewards! Steemit朋友们你们好，在刚刚过去的夏天里，对于你们, 周末最放松的消遣是不是逛公园呢？据说英国是全世界公园最多的国家之一，今天我就想带你们去看一看伦敦最大的皇家公园——海德公园，猜猜夏季和冬季的公园里我最喜欢哪些奇妙的活动？海德公园占地面积为1.4 km²，位于白金汉宫的西侧。18世纪以前这是皇家专属狩鹿场，现在这里逐渐成为人们喜爱的休闲之地。 公园的2大亮点 演讲角——海德公园公共演讲的传统从1800年就开始了，马克思和丘吉尔都曾经来到这里站在自带的木箱上演讲。如今每周日的公园里都是各路思想碰撞的时刻。 纪念喷泉——这是2004年建成的戴安娜王妃纪念喷泉，它流线的造型，从高空看像一串珍贵的项链。这是公园里非常受欢迎的景点，阳光下戏水凉快极了。 公园里可爱的小细节 初夏时节，在海德公园里赏花，那时候的公园是个色彩缤纷的世界，花香飘散，浪漫无比。太阳火辣辣的日子，住在伦敦的人们如果不想跑太远去海边享受日光浴，就会来到海德公园，躺在太阳床上尽情享受。在我眼里的海德公园像是个动物的天堂，调皮的小松鼠突然跑到我身边，给我个大大的惊喜。成群的鸭子，还有悠闲的白天鹅友好的过来我身边，像是见到了好久未见的老朋友。 夏日里划船 在海德公园虽然看起来不大，但是真正走起路来很是会累，所以在公园里通常有3种交通工具，骑马、租自行车还有就是划船啦。 冬日里的疯狂游乐园 海德公园在圣诞节前后会神奇地变身成圣诞游乐园Winter Wonderland。因为临近新年，所以特别有狂欢的气氛。我每年都会忍不住去玩好几次。这里就像个童话世界，有各种好玩的大型游戏等着你，当然也可以玩各种小游戏赢得奖品，你们知道，这是我最爱的啦！ If you are interested in my other blogs related to relationships please check out these other blogs below Kissing Santorini's Magical Blue Sea.
