Hampstead Heath is one of the largest and most popular green spaces in the Greater London area. It is only 4 miles from central London but it feels like 4,000 miles from the bustle of the city. The Heath covers roughly 790 acres (about 360 hectares) and runs along a sandy ridge between Highgate to the east and Hampstead to the south-west. The park includes popular recreational facilities, including three open-air swimming pools. It is extremely popular as a place to fly kites, and you can usually see several kites flying (or crashing to the ground) at Parliament Hill. In fact, so popular is kite-flying here that the hill is sometimes known as Kite Hill.
