So today, we continue with the remaining half of our [Beacon Hill climb](https://peakd.com/halfwayclimb/@ifarmgirl/the-halfway-climb-beacon-hill). After the quick rest by the stairway, we moved on to the mini castle grounds, where Yongi enjoyed some moments on a rocking chair.

Climbing some more, we were delighted to see that they had preserved the tree and built the floor around it. We love the natural surroundings.

My boys were fast; they were already a *floor* ahead of me.

We found a frame of Piccadilly Circus here, and plenty of metal chairs. Not sure what this area is for, to be honest. But it could be a little venue for small group events. Above it is one of the English-inspired chalets in the park. Also present is an iconic structure, the red telephone booth!

Some more chalets were seen there. We rested in front of one of them, for it had no gate.

We took the stairs again, capturing more photos of the chalets (cottages or cabins). Most were occupied by guests who spent the night there. We observe that another is getting built. The demand must be good!

We climbed further. The stairway is quite long, but our boy enjoyed it, hopping one step to another at a time.

I spotted two guards as I approached. What could they be guarding in there?

Aah, three walls displaying framed canvases of famous London scenes.

After taking selfies and such, it was time to meet the Duke of Edinburgh, Prince Philip. We had an amusing moment here when Yongi got scared when he was brought near the statues, lol!

The artwork on that wall is pretty amazing. I hope it won't fade soon, though. Anyway, this topmost part features a viewpoint that offers a panoramic view of [the place]([//]:# (!worldmappin 16.48597 lat 120.67576 long d3scr)) itself and the surrounding area.

We may have been exhausted from the climb; it didn't occur to us to record a video or take a panorama shot. We only took photos of the stairway, then we left the spacious viewpoint and started our descent.

The climb had been wonderful, and going down was a different experience (I may share that on another day). By the way, if ever someone reading this is planning to get a slice of the English experience, we recommend you check [their FB page](https://www.facebook.com/beaconhillecopark/) for announcements. It is usually packed on weekends, especially during the Panagbenga season (Flower Festival). The place is becoming a favorite for prenuptial photoshoots and such.
