On the north-east side is Speaker's Corner, a traditional haven of free speech. The Serpentine boating lake, complete with a designated swimming area, and the Serpentine Gallery is a famous tourist spot. The Albert Memorial and the statue of the mischievous character Peter Pan is housed at the Kensington Gardens also attract a crowd. Separated by the stately Serpentine Bridge many visitors to the park choose to sunbathe near Diana Fountain or simply dip their feet into the water.
