This is run by English Heritage and probably only worth entering if you are a member. It is rather tedious to walk to as it is on the centre of one of the busiest traffic islands in London. There are a number of monuments and sculpture around it including the Duke of Wellington.. The volunteer staff are very personable and there is a lift up to the top balconies. Here you have views along Constitution Hill, Park Lane and Piccadilly. Even in winter with no foliage you cannot see Buckingham Palace. The small sized floors have exhibitions of paintings and war memorabilia. Time your journey for the morning parade of the Horseguards and this is probably the main attraction but you don't have to enter to see them.

Have visited this corner of Hyde Park several times over the years, both right beside and around the arch, and also closeby at Speakers Corner. We hadn’t realised how MA is evidently regarded as a significant space to gather to celebrate, commemorate, campaign, protest or even just pause during part way along a parade. MA has all the character and ambience needed. We experienced just such an event a fortnight ago.

Marble Arch is an iconic structure at the end of Oxford Street where it meets Edgware Road and Park Lane. It is familiar to the Arc De Triomphe in Paris. I visited in May 2024 and it was behind sheeting so I guess it is under restoration at the moment.
