One of the most astonishing things about London is the the huge expanses of parks and gardens right in its centre. The best example is the 23 hectare St James's Park, the oldest Royal Park in London, which is bordered by three royal palaces: Westminster (now the Houses of Parliament), St James, and Buckingham Palace. It has long been a site of considerable importance, even before it was acquired by the British Monarchy. Today it is a favourite of Londoners and tourists with more than 5.5 million visitors each year.
