Exploring London's Kew Garden

As a plant enthusiast, I finally visited London's Kew Garden! The autumn colors of red, orange, and yellow are vibrant throughout the garden. The greenhouse plants are still lush and green. Regarding tickets, I was surprised to learn that they are required, with prices varying between peak and off-peak seasons. October to February is off-peak, making tickets relatively cheaper. Student tickets without donation cost only £6. Although it's off-peak, visiting Kew Garden in autumn is worthwhile because London's fall colors are stunning! The garden is perfect for photography, and if you spend too much time outdoors, you can visit one of the three greenhouses. However, we only had time to visit two, as the greenhouses close at 2 PM and the entire garden closes at 3 PM. It opens at 10 AM and closes at 3 PM, making me envy the staff here. The Palm House is filled with tropical plants, which are very soothing, but having lived in the tropics before, I'm quite familiar with these plants. The Princess of Wales Conservatory is quite diverse, featuring cacti, aquatic plants like lotus and water lilies, and orchids. It's a great place for sketching! Kew Garden is quite large, and I plan to return in spring! #Sketching #Illustration #KewGarden #LondonLife #KewGarden #LondonWeekend #IllustrationLearning #IllustrationSharing
