Kew Gardens | Out & About

To start my long summer break, my parents took me on a day out to Kew Gardens, located in London. They had been there once before, but this was my first time visiting and I really enjoyed it. If you're someone who doesn't like walking around, doesn't like flowers or greenery, and also someone who doesn't like to relax, then this might not be the place for you. But for me, this place was a dream.
 
There's a little cafĂ© that sells tea and cake, there are several ice cream shops/carts/vans and everywhere you looked there was a beautiful photograph opportunity. If there were Disney songs playing 24/7 and multiple Zac Efron's walking around then it would have been 10x better, but maybe next time.
 
Since it was my first time going I didn't really know what to expect. I had heard a few things from my parents but, pretty much, most things you imagine in your head don't actually match the real thing. For example; I imagined this location to be fairly average sized, and maybe a few flowers growing from the ground, but boy was I wrong.
The gardens are massive, they have several conservatories, a house where a past King used to live, and great amounts of different plant and flower types sprawled around the grounds.
It's an incredible sight.

Here are some of the pictures that I took on my day out:

 

 
 





 
 

As you can tell, I like photography a lot.

I really enjoyed my time at Kew Gardens. I took a lot of photos that I am really happy with, and we ended the day with ice cream and Starbucks which added to the enjoyment of the day.
I would definitely recommend visiting this place if you love photography, and also if you like going on long walks, because this place is huge.
It's definitely a place to take the family.
