Right in southwest London, on the majestic River Thames, sits the ancient market town of Kingston upon Thames. Its intriguing name translates to 'the king's estate,' a nod to its rich historical background which includes traces of Roman occupation, the consecration of old English kings, and an active role in England's industrial revolution. Home to over 43,000 people, this bustling town has an industrious past from pottery, brick making to the manufacturing of iconic aircraft like the Sopwith Camel.

Kingston today is a vibrant town with one of the largest retail centres in the UK. From the bustling Bentall Centre to the elegant John Lewis store, and the lively riverside area filled with bars and restaurants, the town offers an enchanting mix of shopping and entertainment venues. With daily markets in the Market Place and renowned sites like the Rose Theatre and All Saints Church, the town keeps its history alive amidst the contemporary lifestyle. Served by two parliamentary constituencies and forming part of the Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames, the town stands as a perfect example of harmoniously blending old and new. With excellent transport links, Kingston upon Thames is ripe for exploration.

When to visit Kingston

While Kingston upon Thames can be visited at any time of the year, the experience varies with the seasons. During the high season from mid-December to mid-April, the days are warm and sunny making it a perfect time for sightseeing and riverside strolls. The shoulder seasons from mid-April through June, and November to early December, can offer lower prices and moderate weather thus making your travel budget-friendly. However, if you want a quieter vacation at a budget, the low season from June to November remains your best bet. Keep in mind that it's Hurricane season in Jamaica starting June 1st to November 30th, with the possibility of higher rainfall during the autumn months. But come rain or shine, Kingston upon Thames is always ready to welcome its guests with open arms.
