The Crystal Palace

It was a beautiful sunny day on Sunday. We went to London for a stroll around without particular destination. In a train, we decided to go to Crystal Palace park in south of London, where we gave up once to go due to engineering work.

 

The Crystal Palace was a cast-iron and plate-glass building for the Great Exhibition of 1851, originally erected in Hyde Park. After the exhibition, the building was rebuilt in South London suburb (current place).

But this building was destroyed by fire on 30 November 1936. Now, it's a popular huge park. Inside the park, there are garden, the Great Make, dinosaurs, an open-air stage etc.

 

 

There were many families and couples, and they were enjoying the sunny day. We walked around the park, but I got exhausted easily, because of summer-like heat. We walked up and down a hill, and I thought that I have a completely lack of exercise... I ate ice-cream and drinks, but had little appetite yesterday.
