Chiswick (/ ˈ tʃ ɪ z ɪ k / ⓘ CHIZ-ik) is a district in the London Borough of Hounslow, West London, England.
Chiswick House was an attempt by Lord Burlington to create a Roman villa, rather than a Renaissance pastiche, situated in a symbolic Roman garden. Chiswick Villa is inspired in part by several buildings of the 16th-century Italian architects Andrea Palladio and his assistant Vincenzo Scamozzi.
The Chiswick House Gardens form the grounds of Chiswick House, now in West London, England. Lord Burlington first arranged the gardens in the 1720s to match his ideas of the gardens of classical times and the Palladianism of the house.
Old Chiswick is the area of the original village beside the river Thames for which the modern district of Chiswick is named. The village grew up around St Nicholas Church, founded c. 1181 and named for the patron saint of fishermen. The placename was first recorded c. 1000 as Ceswican ('Cheese farm').
This tranquil west London neighbourhood is one of the prettiest and leafiest suburbs of the city. Dine at riverside bars and restaurants, soak up the thriving cafe culture, peruse its independent shops and explore historic houses such as Syon House and Chiswick House.
