With autumn looming, people are often discouraged by the sun leaving the days shorter. However, nothing in London compares to Kew Gardens igniting into beautiful oranges, reds and auburn. Being the largest open space in London there isn’t better place to gaze upon the changing trees.

Take a walk through Kew Garden’s Arboretum, with trees dating back to the 18th Century you get a glimpse into the vast beauty of what grand gardens once were and have the potential to be now. With the weather being unpredictable, you can also explore deserts, rain forest and other worldly landscape within Kew Houses.
