Victoria Tower Gardens is a public park in the heart of Westminster, between the Houses of Parliament, the River Thames, Millbank and Lambeth Bridge. Look out for a number of memorials celebrating freedom, including the Buxton Memorial which marks the abolition of slavery, and French sculptor Auguste Rodin’s Burghers of Calais. And for children the Horseferry Playground includes a sandpit, dance chimes and a water play feature. The gardens are managed by The Royal Parks, with the head office at The Old Police House, Hyde Park.
