Visit London review of Greenwich Park
It is a bit of a hike up the hill at Greenwich to reach the Observatory but completely worth the effort. Once you’ve reached the summit you can marvel at the extraordinary view of the London skyline. There are also opportunities to learn about Greenwich’s historical meridian line.
