World: Europe: Britain: London: Regent's Park

FACT HERE. Also home to the Zoological Gardens (or "Zoo"). The gardens are maintained by the Zoological Society, founded in 1826, and are one of the major zoological collections in Europe.

Park very close to 221B Baker Street.

YELL: Watson: "One day in early spring he [Holmes] had so far relaxed as to go for a walk with me in the Park."
CHAS: Holmes compares Charles Augustus Milverton to a particular creature at the Zoo: "Do you feel a creeping, shrinking sensation, watson, when you stand before the serpents in the Zoo, and see the slithery, gliding, venemous creatures, with their deadli eyes and wicked, flatted faces? Well, that's how Milverton impresses me."
