The borough has a wonderful array of historic houses and hidden gems for you to venture in - after a day here you will see why our famous past residents, including artist J.M.W. Turner and Alexander Pope, chose to make their homes here. And why Queen Elizabeth I and Henry VIII used the borough as a royal retreat.
In Twickenham you can visit Orleans House Gallery, once home to both French and English aristocracy, and marvel at its recently refurbished Octagon Room. Whilst you are here, why not pay a visit to Ham House and Garden or get lost in our musical heritage on Eel Pie Island Museum, where superstars like Rod Stewart, Eric Clapton and the Rolling Stones started their careers.
Richmond upon Thames has more green spaces than any other London borough, with 128 parks, commons and woodland. As the only London borough that straddles the River Thames, there are plenty of peaceful riverside walks for you to enjoy, and of course we have two beautiful Royal Parks - Richmond Park and Bushy Park. If you are visiting one of the Royal Parks, why not spend some time exploring the independent shops and hospitality in local favourites spots such as East Sheen, a short walk from Richmond Park, or Teddington, which neighbours Bushy Park.
While exploring our charming borough, you'll forget that you are only a twenty minute train ride from central London. Whether you are visiting for a day or are spending a length of time, we'll warmly welcome you, your family and friends and we'll make sure you leave with dazzling memories of London's greenest borough.
So, what are you waiting for? - Happy Exploring!
