"A popular hangout with the locals, Hampstead Heath is located about four miles from the city center, providing people the chance to completely unwind. Perhaps the biggest draw to this green space are its three swimming ponds and lido, which are perfect in summer. Popular with the locals, the ponds are a great place to chill out after a day of sightseeing. Hampstead Heath also has an athletic track, sporting fields, and a small zoo." - MATADOR_NETWORK
