London's (Free) National Gallery, Trafalgar Square.

by gillandtony gillandtony is a Top Reviewer on Epinions in Hotels & Travel, , Aug 06 '07
Pros: If you love art, you will love this.
Cons: Don't even talk to me about the coffee.
To discover London’s National Gallery travel to Trafalgar Square (the nearest tube stations are Charing Cross or Leicester Square). When you have finished having your photo taken by the fountains and you have stared up at Nelson’s Column, then ...

Gall does Art - The Art Galleries of London

by travelgall Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Mar 26 '04
Pros: One of the greatest collections of art in the world. And they're free.
Cons: Usually very busy.
I'm always reluctant to critique something I know little about, and I claim to know little about art. Now I have no idea why Michelangelo's David is so famously Ill-Equipped, can't tell you when Gaugin went to Tahiti to paint underage Tahitian girls or ...

The British Museum--and Related Political Asides

by DAnneC Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Apr 22 '00
Pros: Ancient masterpieces all around
Cons: Too much to see in too little time
When my husband and I decided to spend only two days in London last fall, the first item on my personal agenda was to pay a visit to the British Museum. I wanted to see the museum's famous antiquities, including the Rosetta Stone, the Elgin Marbles, and...

London sites for the military buff

by buffoonery Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, May 03 '00
Pros: World Class Military History exhibits
Cons: None
London has a number of attractions for anyone remotely interested in military history: 1) The Imperial War Museum: located south of the river, take the Tube to Elephant & Castle on the Bakerloo line and walk maybe half a mile. This has a superb ...

The Tate - What Now My Love

by gentlementle , Aug 08 '00
Pros: A great overview of essential British works of art
Cons: A bit of a jaunt from the center of town
The Tate Gallery (now Tate Britain as the Tate Modern was just constructed) was the first museum I visited in London and will remain my most favorite. It has a completely different feel from the National Gallery and the Vic & Al, incorporating a lot...

Tate Gallery

by piggywig , Feb 04 '00
Pros: Pre-Raphaelite Collection, Airy Galleries, Not tremendously crowded
Cons: Out of the way location, Not all paintings displayed
I had been to London about half a dozen times before deciding to take a day to make the journey to the Tate Gallery. Instead, I chose to visit the more usual museums like the National Gallery and the British Museum. Part of the reason for this is that...

The Museum of London

by basykes1 , Dec 19 '99
Pros: Unique displays, many multimedia
Cons: not as well known as the British Museum
The Museum of London was suggested to us on our second trip to that city. Out of the way near the Barbicon, it probably was not some place we would have looked up otherwise. However, it's become my favorite museum. It traces, in chronological order,...

Pros: Free for main gallery, great works of art
Cons: none
If you are going to be in London, you definitely have to check out the National Gallery. But if you want to see all the works in this gallery, plan on spending days, not hours, peering at these beautiful works of art. The Gallery is free, so you can...

National Portrait Gallery: an art museum where what's important is not the art

by arthurlwhite , Jul 06 '03
Pros: an intensely fascinating glimpse of England's history
Cons: for some, it's like a giant picture album of someone else's friends

The British Museum: One trip is not enough

by hubbjm , Sep 05 '00
Pros: Free, great variety, location
Cons: Cannot be covered in one visit
During my 10 month stay in England, the British Museum became my favorite spot to spend an afternoon. The museum located on Gower street (tube stop: Euston Square) had several qualities that put it at the top of my list.

First of all it is...

Don't Miss the Cabinet War Rooms

by Zski , Apr 02 '00
Pros: Interesting piece of history, great audio tour
Cons: a little cramped, but that's to be expected
This is not a review of a gallery; however, this is the only category it would fit! The Cabinet War Rooms museum is the actual bunker in Westminster, near the Houses of Parliament, where Winston Churchill and staff worked during World War II (during...

National Portrait Gallery: British History in Faces

by alberto , Aug 05 '00
Pros: Fascinating, instructive, and free
Cons: None
Do you get Sir Francis Drake mixed up with Francis Bacon, and confuse Monty with Lord Mountbatten? If you are curious about British history, the NPG is an enjoyable and painless way to get it all sorted out, simply by looking at pictures of people.
