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 ...
Pros: Ancient masterpieces all around Cons: Too much to see in too little time

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...
Pros: Pre-Raphaelite Collection, Airy Galleries, Not tremendously crowded Cons: Out of the way location, Not all paintings displayed

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, great variety, location Cons: Cannot be covered in one visit

Pros: Interesting piece of history, great audio tour Cons: a little cramped, but that's to be expected
