A picnic doesn’t have to be in your backyard; although there are several great places in the UK to plan a picnic, there are many great spots for picnicking around the world! If you’re planning international travels or would like to visit a local destination for a picnic, these are three of the best destinations to plan the perfect picnic.

Hyde Park is one of the most well-known destinations in London for picnicking, and outdoor enjoyment. A Holocaust and Princess Diana memorial are onsite for those who love historical points of reference, you can swim in Lake Serpentine, or enjoy a horse-drawn carriage ride. Planning a picnic for two, or a great time with the entire family, is quite simple at this historic destination.

Central Park in NYC is another popular picnic hotspot. Touring buildings, the backdrop of Manhattan, and an outdoor amphitheater to catch a movie screening at times, are some great perks of picnicking in this park. And, there’s more than enough green-space for tourists and locals alike.

Kowloon Park in Hong Kong is a third international destination for picnic enthusiasts who want to try an exotic destination. If you’re planning a visit to Asia, and Hong Kong is on your list of stops, consider this park for a picnic date. The lakes are occupied by flamingoes and exotic birds for a gorgeous backdrop and there is an indoor sporting facility if you want to engage in games/sports with the family.

Each of these offers their own distinct style, flair, and great scenic aspects picnickers are bound to appreciate and no picnic is complete without the best picnic basket. No matter where you are in the world, or which continent you are planning to visit in the near future, you’re likely going to find a great park or sitting location, where you can enjoy an afternoon picnic for two, or for the entire family.
