Winter Wonderland

There's no better way to experience the magic of this festive season than with Winter Wonderland in Hyde Park.

Taking over the city every year since 2007, you'll find a whole load of rides, market stalls and mouthwatering street food here, as well as their ever-popular ice skating rink. There's something for everyone to enjoy too, whether you prefer being flung around on a high-octane rollercoaster or enjoying stunning views of London on the giant wheel - particularly gorgeous if you visit after dark, when the capital lights up in front of you.

Need to catch up on your Christmas shopping? No problem, as these guys have got over 100 vendors in traditional wooden huts, selling everything from candles to clothing and cute decorations. And when it comes to refreshments, you're spoilt for choice as well - we're talking chalet-style bars serving mulled wine and pop-up kitchens cooking everything from classic hot dogs to gourmet cheese toasties, alongside plenty of Instagrammable desserts.
