Living in Wimbledon
Wimbledon is a prosperous residential area where the Wimbledon tennis tournament is held. Here is also the Wimbledon Lawn Tennis Museum. In Wimbledon Village you will find both small shops and fashionable cafes. The large fields along Wimbledon Common attract pedestrians and cyclists, while the somewhat smaller Wimbledon Park, with its playgrounds and lake, attracts families. At the Polka Theater, children’s performances are performed, and musicals can be seen at the New Wimbledon Theater.
