Top most place to visit in London

 Beautiful Valentine Park



Valentines Park, located south of Gants Hill, is a 52-hectare park and the largest green area in the London Borough of Redbridge. 
The park was formerly the grounds of Valentines Mansion, a 1696 house. Valentines Park has a Green Flag Award and was named one of the top ten parks in the United Kingdom in 2019.

Valentines Park features a number of mature trees (including tulips, Scots pine, horse chestnuts, limes, and Lebanon cedars), giant yuccas, and well-kept shrub and plant beds. Marsh Tits and Turtle Doves have been observed in the park, making it a favorite destination for birdwatchers.

Valentines Park was renovated extensively between 2007 and 2008, with funds provided by the Heritage Lottery Fund and the London Borough of Redbridge, the park's owners. The park's heritage value is enhanced by the presence of formal Rococo features in a suburban park; the park is Grade II. Listed, along with numerous other structures in the park, such as the Gardeners Cottage and the railings and gates.
