Victoria Tower Gardens, Public park at Westminster, United Kingdom.
The gardens stretch along the northern bank of the River Thames, between Millbank and the water, extending from the Palace of Westminster to Lambeth Bridge.
Established in 1870 during the Victorian era, the gardens earned recognition as a Grade II listed park, reflecting the period's approach to urban green spaces.
The park features several monuments including Rodin's Burghers of Calais sculpture, the Pankhurst statue, and the Buxton Memorial Fountain commemorating slavery abolition.
Victoria Tower Gardens remains open from dawn until dusk, providing benches and pathways for visitors to explore the 2.04-hectare grounds throughout the day.
The gardens offer direct views of the Palace of Westminster while integrating multiple historical monuments within a compact riverside green space in central London.
