Greenspace Travel: Act All Civilized Like in London

June 6, 2008 at 1:30 PM | by | Comments (0)

Stuffy London lets its hair down today with the start of Open Garden Squares Weekend, in which the snooty green spaces of the city become public domain.

More than a hundred walled gardens are taking part in an event whose very existence would be unheard of in an American city. After all, we call these things lawns; parks are always open to everyone!

All twitting the British aside, Londonist has some great picks for the oases not to be missed, like Kensington Roof Gardens and the rooftop Japanese-style garden at University College.
