Mother's Day is a special occasion to celebrate and show appreciation for mothers and mother
00:07
figures in our lives. Whether you're looking for a classic way to mark the day or something
00:14
a little different, there are plenty of ways to spend quality time together, especially
00:18
here in London. One of the most popular and traditional options is enjoying afternoon
00:23
tea, and London offers a variety of venues to experience this one. For a traditional
00:29
experience, the Ritz in London is a well-known location offering afternoon tea in its palm
00:35
court. This includes selections of teas, finger sandwiches, scones and pastries. Similarly,
00:42
Claridge's also offers afternoon tea, featuring a variety of sandwiches, cake scones as well.
00:48
Some of the more iconic venues are along near Green Park, like the Savoy and also Fortnum
00:54
and Mason, which is also known historically for serving afternoon tea and sandwiches.
01:01
These venues, all of them mentioned, are steeped in tradition in London, making them popular
01:05
choices for Mother's Day outing. But if you're looking for a change of pace, a visit to many
01:11
of the London's museums and galleries can also be a great way to spend Mother's Day.
01:17
The Victoria and Albert Museum offers a fascinating range of art, fashion and design exhibits
01:24
that provide historic looks into the city and the rest of the world, ancient civilisations
01:30
and cultures. The British Museum has an extensive collection of artefacts, including Egyptian
01:35
mummies and Greek sculptures, maybe on Mummy's Day. Alternatively, the National Gallery houses
01:42
masterpieces of Western European art through Van Gogh, Da Vinci and Rembrandt. Exploring
01:48
these cultural treasures is an enriching way to spend time together, and many museums in
01:53
London have special exhibitions or events for Mother's Day, so it's always worth checking
01:58
ahead. Now, another idea is to spend some time outdoors. It is spring now and some of
02:03
London's beautiful parks are starting to come into life. Kew Gardens, for example, has a
02:08
vast botanical garden with thousands of plant species and landscapes to explore. It's peaceful,
02:15
it's a scenic place for a relaxing walk. However, if you're looking for something closer to
02:19
the heart of the city, St James' Park, where I am, and Green Park is an excellent choice.
02:25
Located in central London, near the afternoon tea places too, if you fancy doing both of
02:30
them, and there's Buckingham Palace behind me. So there you have it, that is our guide
02:35
for Mother's Day in London. Whether it's indulging in afternoon tea at a classic venue, exploring
02:41
a museum or walking through a beautiful park in the city, Mother's Day in London offers
02:45
plenty of options to show appreciation and create lasting memories, or even spend the
02:51
day remembering a loved one. There's a mixture of things you can do, so wherever you are
02:55
in the city, make sure to have a special Mother's Day.
