Where was the Crystal Palace built?

The Crystal Palace was originally built in Hyde Park, London to house the Great Exhibition of 1851. This was never intended to be its long term venue and when the exhibition closed, the Crystal Palace was dismantled and re-assembled in Upper Norwood, an area of southeast London, where it could be seen from miles around. In 1936 the building burned to the ground and arson was suspected but never proved. The stone foundations of the building are still in situ and the surrounding area is now known as Crystal Palace by local people.
