PAGODA<br />
KEW<br />
Kew’s Pagoda was completed<br />
in 1762 as a gift for Princess<br />
Augusta, the founder of<br />
the Gardens. It was one of<br />
several Chinese buildings<br />
designed for Kew by Sir<br />
William Chambers, who had<br />
spent time travelling and<br />
studying the architecture of<br />
East Asia. A popular ‘folly’ of<br />
the age, it offered one of the<br />
earliest and finest bird’s eye<br />
views of London – which you<br />
can enjoy today, thanks to a<br />
major restoration project. The<br />
<strong>Great</strong> Pagoda will re-open<br />
for pre-booked guided tours<br />
from 5 June 2021 - so enjoy<br />
climbing up the <strong>Great</strong> Pagoda<br />
and seeing those spectacular<br />
views across the capital.<br />
