London has more than its fair share of museums and art galleries thanks to the British ruling half of the world. The most noteworthy are:

• The British Museum
• The National Gallery
• National Portrait Gallery
• Victoria and Albert Museum
• National History Museum
  Science Museum
• Tate Museum
• Tate Modern
• Museum of London
• Imperial War Museum
• V&A Museum of Childhood

Out of these, we managed to see four in this visit leaving others for future visits (hopefully!).

The best thing about British museums and galleries is that they are free for everyone.

The British Museum

The British Museum has some of the most amazing collections in the world. With seventy galleries and about eight million artifacts, it is one of the largest museums in the world. We decided to keep one full day to visit the British Museum. It is one place where I can spend my whole life without getting bored.
