Beautiful gardens. Nice walk around park.

One of my all time favorite spots. Have been in and around this park multiple time and have to say it's a great escape from the busy streets of London. I would advise to avoid on weekends due to the holiday rush, but other than that should be perfectly fine.
The peacock is always active in the Japanese Garden. Also would request public to be a bit more considerate towards litering etc especially near the water feature.

A small island across a small bridge on the water in the Regents Park. The Japanese garden island is well worth visiting. It’s so serene and peaceful. There are koy fish in the water, and you can sit right at the waters edge and watch them. Also there was a grey heron when we went, as well as some Egyptian geese.

A beautiful little garden almost floating amongst the lake. Many pretty flowers, trees and cute stone crossings.
Certain times of the year you can see black swans which make a serious sound.
Has a little bridge to connect with the mainland.
Some trees have little love symbols which is cute too.
Traditional Japanese aesthetic in the middle of Regent’s Park.
A great spot worth a stroll.

The garden is beautiful, but the trees are quite thick.I personally think it's a bit too overgrown in some areas, but the overall atmosphere is still pleasant and relaxing.
