Soho Square Gardens: A little gem in central London

*Yawn* I was very tired after walking around London in the afternoon. The problem is, it seems like there's nowhere to go to sit down except coffee shops and the benches in the hustle and bustle of Oxford Street.

But here is a little green oasis, and it's free to visit!

Soho Square Gardens are just off Oxford Street, and easily accessible from Tottenham Court Road station. I walked there in about 15 minutes, ducking and bobbing through the humans busily shopping.

If you look very closely near the right leg of Charles II here (the king who was restored after the English Civil War), you can see me standing there! I'm doing my best 'kingly' pose.

There's a tiny little house in the middle of the Gardens, and although it would be just the right size for a family of elves like me, it's actually used as a tool shed!

It looks like it's a Tudor house, but actually it was built during the 20th century.

Hmm. Now I'm relaxed and refreshed, I'm going to play some sports! There are two ping pong tables set up in the Gardens, and they're free to use.

Has anyone seen my table tennis bat?

See you soon,
