Diana, Princess of Wales Memorial Fountain

From a sad end, there is so much fun today. A revolutionary "fountain" with running water, pools to play in, the guardianship of swans and friends, the memories of Diana flow fast within the memorial channels. Well done.

This is a touching memorial to Princess Diana on the south side of The Serpentine in Hyde Park. The memorial was opened to the public in 2004 and can be visited from 10am to 6pm daily. What you will find is 545 pieces of Cornish granite shaped and organised in a manner that aims to reflect Diana's life with water flowing in two directions, cascading, swirling and bubbling along in a peaceful manner before merging into a calm pool. It is a elegant design and monument respectful to the memory of Diana. This is a memorial well worth giving 15-20 minutes of your time to appreciate while spending time at Hyde Park.

Well maintained playground. It is Peter pan themed and mostly made of wood. The sand pit is fun. The lagoon is open only in summer, though. It's one of the best playgrounds we've been to in London. There are also washrooms right outside the playground.

Lovely feature in the park but at 6.30pm there was no water running and the stagnant water was rather dirty. Family's were enjoying picnics but loud music spoilt the atmosphere.

An engineering masterpiece, worth a visit. No toilets though. Which may explain the smell of the water being circulated and the slight taste of cheesy feet.

Nice and peaceful area in Hyde Park. The flowing water brings a sense of calmness in the buzzing city. This unique memorial to Diaria, Princess of Wares was opened by Her Majesty The Queen on 16th July 2004. The fountain was built with the very best of materials, talent and technology. It contains 545, pieces of Cornish granite - each shaped by the latest computer controlled machinery and pieced together using traditional skills. The kids love the water. It is a must visit in summer in London.

A beautiful quiet corner in Hyde Park and a silent fountain in memory of a Wonderful Human 🙏

Busy buzzing port. You can hire fishing boats, long tail boats, catermaran. Vibrant and full of life.
