The heart of Richmond is the river. An unspoilt, 21 mile section of the Thames runs through Richmond, just 20 minutes by tube from central London. A favoured residence since the days of Henry VIII, Richmond-upon-Thames boasts many magnificent houses and gardens. Discover world-renowned Hampton Court Palace and maze, the oldest Tudor palace in England, and Kew Gardens, with its 300 acres containing collections of over 40,000 varieties of plants. Marble Hill House, the Thames-side villa built between 1724-29 for Henrietta Howard, mistress of King George III, is also open to visitors
Twickenham Stadium and Museum, the home of English rugby, is located within the borough, as well as theatres and art galleries, specialist shopping, and two excellent repertory cinemas. The finest feature of the borough is Richmond Park, with its herds of red and fallow deer. The most magnificent park in the capital, this expanse offers some of the most attractive countryside in Britain. One of the best ways to reach Richmond is by river and scheduled riverboat services operate from April to September, connecting Westminster, Kew, Richmond and Hampton Court.
