    A touching homage to the "People's Princess”. Unveiled by her sons on her sixtieth birthday, the new statue of Diana with three children reflects her universal appeal and compassion. The elegant planting and seasonal displays create a tranquil space for appreciation and reflection. The Sunken Garden stands as a heartfelt tribute, making it a special place to visit in London.

    This is a very nice place. The tree tunnel is fairytale-like and Diana's statue is concise. On the other hand I was a little disappointed by the fact that there is no spot from which a person can see the statue up close from the front. So eventually you have to admire the statue either from far away or up close but from behind. But it is definitely worth visiting.

    I was expecting a bigger statue and a more manicured garden. But otherwise a beautiful place to honor Diana

    The Sunken Garden was created in 1908 at the instigation of King Edward VII, in an area of the gardens previously occupied by potting sheds and greenhouses. This garden is next to Kensington Palace that was visited many times by Princess Diana. She was particularly fond of the Sunken Garden, so to mark the 20th anniversary of her death in 2017 the palace’s gardeners transformed the space into The White Garden in her memory. Using flowers in white and soft pastel colours, the display took inspiration from items from the Princess’s wardrobe then on display in the palace.Unveiled on what would have been her 60th birthday, a statue of the Princess commissioned by her sons in 2017 to memorialise their mother now stands within the garden.

    Visited during the winter, so no blooms to speak of, it is barren. I'm sure it is beautiful come spring/summer. We toured Kensington Palace, which is touristy. Tax payer should not have to pay to get in.

    A beautiful and peaceful garden located near Kensington Palace in Hyde Park. It is well maintained and really comes into its own in late spring and early summer. After a walk through Hyde Park, it is the perfect place to end and enjoy the blooms and scents.

    A beautiful, peaceful place that is obviously very well maintained and cared for. We enjoyed a visit on a gorgeous sunny day. Nestled in a picturesque, perfectly manicured setting, the Princess Diana memorial statue is a wonderful tribute.

    It's right next to Kensington Palace. It's a nice place to walk round before you go in the Palace.

    It's a lovely serene place. Come early (a little before 10am) to be there without the crowds.

    It's based right in the southwest part of Hyde Park. It's not easily noticeable, though, but it's not difficult to find it. On a sunny day you can even go and enjoy over there there are a lot of picnic areas, and Hyde Parks pond is right in front of this place. You can have a walk to Kensington Palace for a 10-minute walk away
