Christmas in London would not be complete without a visit to this Hyde Park extravaganza. Free to go in, you can simply walk around the site and take in all the lights and sounds if the budget does not stretch to the rides – and it is a spectacle in itself. However, if a treat is on the cards, you can go ice skating, visit Santa Land, look over the skyline on the giant wheel and be enchanted by the Ice Kingdom, as well as tons of other rides and attractions.
