National Gallery

Gratuit, de magnifiques tableaux avec une explication les accompagnant, et des activités possibles (comme avoir une explication sur une oeuvre suivie d'un atelier dessin, des conférences ouvertes à tous).

N'oubliez pas de prendre le plan à l'entrée, on peut s'y perdre facilement !

If you go to London, even if just for a day, make this a stop on your itinerary. the paintings are truly breathtaking, with masterpieces from so many periods of time and so many different artists. You can easily spend one whole day here. i suggest getting an audio tour, as it really enhances your experience with knowing the story behind the painting. Room after room, you'll find something that amazes you. This museum is a must-see attraction.

The National Gallery is one of my favorite places in London. It can however be a bit overwhelming because there is a lot of fantastic art to see. I am an art lover myself and I have spent many afternoons admiring their Raphael's and Botticellis, but I had the advantage of being introduced to the work slowly and over several months. There's no entrance fee, which is awesome considering the amount of incredible masterpieces there are inside. There are also a lot of benches inside in every room so that if you want to sit and really admire some of the larger pieces, you can sit and relax for a bit. I personally think the floor plan can be a bit confusing if you are looking for a specific piece and don't want to spend time wandering around a bit, but if you are an art lover with several hours to spare, you definitely wouldn't want to miss it! They do also offer tours and audio guides if that is something you're interested in, although I don't know much about that since I have never used those services.
