Battersea Park is located on the south bank of famous river Thames, opposite to Chelsea. Battersea fields, which was once considered to be a duelling spot in 1846, has been transformed into a recreation park. And most of the English people do know that it was the home ground of Wanderers.F.C amateur soccer club, the first-ever winners of FA cup in 1872.

Famous attractions that you should never miss out in this park are Guinness clock, Oyster Creek Branch Railway, Children's zoo, a bandstand, boating lake, sporting facilities like football pitchers, a running track and tennis courts, London Peace Pagoda and finally the Bronze Brown dog statue. Overall, it's a must-visit place for fun loving people.

So,as Petula Clark sings, "Meet me in Battersea Park" and have fun!
