Last time, we discovered the inspiring masterful works of some of the greatest painters in human history; and found out a little bit more about the history of London’s National Gallery.
Talking about history let us now go on to our next destination. A place rich with timeless exhibits and displays…
#7 Natural History Museum
The Natural History Museum is one of three large museums on Exhibition Road, South Kensington, London and is part of the Albertopolis – a nickname for the area which was given based on the large number of educational and cultural sites in it. Albertopolis was coined after Prince Albert of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, who was the driving force behind the Great Exhibition.

For our previous destination, we talked about Tate Modern: its history, its collections, and its great ambient view of the London skyline at night.
Art is one the many facets of London that perennially keeps the city included in the travel and tour plan of many tourists.
Today we will showcase one of the most visited painting galleries of the world, London’s National Gallery. Don’t miss out!
