"Bought by Henry VIII as parkland for hunting; filled with camels, crocodiles, elephants and exotic birds by James I; and converted into French ornamental gardens by Charles II — St James’s Park is the oldest royal park and has seen many reincarnations throughout its rich history. Its brilliant, varied planting changes with the seasons, and every visitor should cross the blue bridge for views of Buckingham Palace and Whitehall across the lake. The official symbol of St James’s, its pelicans have been residents here for over 350 years. Feeding time is 2.30pm by the ornamental cottage on Duck Island." - dn&co.
