Where to Go in Richmond upon Thames, london: Top 6 Attractions & Local Favorites

Abigail Taylor Amazing views and the walk in Richmond Park was beautiful. We visited in December , it was cold but the day was sunny and pleasant. Car parking took a while but we did find one and enjoyed our time at the Park , even saw the rutting deer

Lynn Mumford Ham House in a lovely spot near the Thames in Richmond. Having watched a number of productions on TV (sense and sensibility and Taboo to name but a few) which this has been featured. Visited 16/6/25 on a lovely summers day. Beautiful house and garden. There is parking a short walk away by the river, they seemed to cater for disabled parking on site. A nice walled garden at the rear with a nice cafe.

Santosh Mathew Good place to see many different types of flowers. Strangely, this came up when I searched for Tulip plantations and this came up. But there were no tulips when we visited. The surprising highlight was there were deer up, close and personal, not fenced in, out in the open. That was really breathtaking.

Karui A small park, but good for a walk in the afternoon. Some area has planted flowers which make them look beautiful. Many kids are playing around, let the park be very vivid, very energetic.

Tuba Polat Great place for relaxing and walking.

Babji Vundavilli It is a sizable, serene meadow that is adjacent to the Thames. Under a leasing agreement, the National Trust oversees the meadows, which are owned by Richmond Council. A new collection of flora is created each year when cows are brought to the meadows to graze. Its best to respect the grass, wildflowers, and voles and stay on the path because its an old meadow. The Terraced Gardens are directly across the street and only a two-minute walk away if you wish to have a picnic or run on the grass. On sunny weekends, it can get crowded, so its best to arrive before midday. Alternatively, you can visit during the week, when you can often walk across the meadow by yourself and think. Fantastic Views!
