Lovely park with panoramic views across London. Home of Greenwich Maritime Museum and The Royal Observatory. Boating Lake and children's play park. Annoyingly inaccessible by public transport considering how close it is - best by 343 bus towards New Cross Jerningham Road then the 177 bus from New Cross Gate stop R towards Thamesmead to Greenwich High Road. Reasonable Cafe at the top of the park with great views. Also see the retro/ vintage and crafts markets in central Greenwich, best at weekends.
