A park in London, England. Its total area is 361 acres (146 ha), but it is a large park of over 600 acres (243 ha) that is connected to Kensington Gardens (the gardens of Kensington Palace, which contains the memorial to Prince Albert) on the west side, separated by a long, curved pond called the Serpentine. It originally belonged to Westminster Abbey, but Henry VIII made it a royal hunting ground, and from the reign of Charles I it became a pleasure spot.
