What a great park! It has so much history, gardens, the mansion and a great Neighborhood outside it- love it! Even in nasty weather it’s beautiful, Thanks WW, we’ll get thru February ❣️
Very enjoyable walk, I love the design in the fancy gate at Earls Court entrance to Holland Park. The Lady of Victory Church is well hidden, but lovely entrance. London is amazing, was there once many years ago. I hope I get to return one day. Thank you for your videos.
Winter walk, a bit sad but winter is not the happiest season!!. A garden that I will look at in another season, as I have seen that a promenade exists with warmer weather. A beautiful Japanese garden too. A relaxing walk. Thank you WW
Our first trip to London we stayed in a hotel in Kensington,and walked Holland park.I remember the peacocks, the WW2 bombed building, and exiting the park and not having a clue where we were, but loving every minute of being lost!Thanks for this walk!
Thanks for another wonderful winter walk!👍 I really love the bit where you approach the Walking Man Sculpture in the park and all the birds flutter away at the same time... 11:51 ... movie quality!!😎😎😎
How lovely, I would love to visit London one day. I enjoy your videos very much. On this walk you are just north of where the late great Freddie Mercury lived.
More top content as always my friend, as I always say. London is so vast that you have so much option to choose from in where you want to go off and have a look around, never gets old 👍🏻👊🏻❤️

Great video, memories of staying at the Holland House Youth Hostel for 2 weeks in February 1990. Found 3 logos, 2 on brick walls in Holland Park and 1 on a white wall at the end of Melbury Road...didn't find the fourth one.
Great to see Holland park. Brought back many memories. Interesting point: As you came out of the park onto Ilchester Place the huge detached house on your right (behind the long wall) once belonged to the infamous film director Michael Winner and now belongs to Robbie Williams. Bet it set him back a bob or two...

Lovely snowy walk. Cool to hear the accents too.
I love this videos. I live in Brazil and one of my dreams is to go places like london.
It’s awesome, is it possible that you can do one more walk during the spring. It would be great to see everything in bloom and waking up.
love this, such a relaxing walk.
Thank you!
I like snow I love London
Winter wonderland ❤️
amazing shot there between the buses.
Great video, memories of staying at the Holland House Youth Hostel for 2 weeks in February 1990. Found 3 logos, 2 on brick walls in Holland Park and 1 on a white wall at the end of Melbury Road...didn't find the fourth one.
Thanks Steve, you did well spotting those logos!
that ending at the skylight was tremendous.
Thanks Pete!
Thank you !
This looks like a wonderland... but cold lol

Milo, yes I dread to think how much that house would cost!
Is this live
Waiting 👍🏻
I can never find the WW logos in your videos. Any hints? Loved this video. Can’t wait to return to London.
Brick walls and shop shutters are a good starting place 🙂
Thanks! We’ll do a rewatch with those hints 😉
Was that an igrit? love how you took time to focus on her. the japanese garden was splendid.
Pete, it looked like a heron to me, but I'm no expert!
i liked this place
Very good video
When will this be available in VR???
Nostalgia
