Paradise is a small locality within the borough of King's Lynn and West Norfolk in Norfolk, England, typically thought of as a quiet residential pocket on the edge of the town. Geographically it sits in the low-lying Fenland close to the tidal waterways that feed into the River Great Ouse, so the landscape around it is flat, often agricultural and popular with walkers and birdwatchers who enjoy the nearby marshes and estuary views.
Historically and economically the area has been shaped by the fortunes of King's Lynn as a medieval port and market town - the wider borough mixes maritime, agricultural and light industrial influences - and Paradise reflects that quieter, community-focused side of town life. Socially it tends to attract local families and commuters who value easy access to the town’s historic centre, markets and occasional cultural events while still being close to the open countryside of the Fens.
