Although Prince Charles has got marry with Cornwall, in my mind, Princess Diana is the forever Princess of the England. To some extend, her life just like the Cinderella. I have no idea about what the British opinion, but we can still find lots of Diana’s souvenirs in the souvenir shop, putting with Charles and Cornwall.
Therefore, when I got the Hyde Park, I was hurry to find the fountain. Instead of a huge monument, the designer used two rings of flowing water, which lie on the grass peacefully. However, there are different kinds of conditions in the flowing water. In my mind, they reflect Diana's joy, grief and her short life.
Despite Princess Diana passing away, her legend and rumor still lie on the Hyde Park and my mind forever.
