The Royal Greenwich Observatory played a crucial role in the history of astronomy and navigation. Established in 1675 by King Charles II, it housed the Astronomer Royal and cutting-edge scientific instruments. Over the years, it became a hub for creating accurate star charts, determining longitudes, and providing time signals. The observatory's legacy lives on as part of the Royal Museums Greenwich, offering visitors a glimpse into its rich scientific past.

The view from the top of the hill here in Greenwich Park is excellent, too.
