Kyoto Garden is a Japanese Garden in Holland Park, West Kensington. It was first created in 1991 and was refurbished in 2001. Since its refurbishment it has been described as one of the “three places you will never forget in London”.

Being in Kyoto Garden makes it hard to believe you are actually in London. The serene and tranquil atmosphere and the wide variety of Japanese trees, plants, and fish is a completely different experience to any other London garden.

The garden’s main feature is its large pond with stepping stones and a waterfall. The pond is full of money (thrown in my people making wishes) and unusual Japanese fish.

Around the pond are many rocks engraved with Japanese writing, and lots of beautiful plants and trees in a diverse range of colours.

Holland Park is open daily from 7.30am and admission is free. So next time you’re in London why not take a look at the fascinating gardens in Holland Park, in particular Kyoto Garden.
