📍Must-Visit Museums in London | Time-Saving Highlights You Can’t Miss!

#traveldiaries 💎 V&A Museum: 3h As someone who’s visited the V&A three times, I’m qualified to recommend it! Here’s why: Stunning Aesthetics: From the entrance, the colors, to the garden, every corner is Instagram-worthy! Perfect for photo lovers and those who enjoy buying museum merch. Sculpture Hall is a Must-See: The Cast Court on the ground floor – even though they’re replicas, the proportions are so grand that the giant David statue feels like a god descending! You’ll definitely have a “wow” moment. Jewelry Room is Pure Magic: The second floor’s jewelry section will stop you in your tracks. Sapphires and emeralds twinkle like the universe is winking at you! ✨ Diverse Special Exhibits: From home designs during design week to backstage videos from 200 years of performing arts (including behind-the-scenes looks at wigs from The Crown), it’s definitely worth checking out. Tip: You can skip the non-European section on the first floor if you’re short on time and focus on the highlights! 💎 British Museum: 3h Here’s how to get the most out of it: Must-see sections on the ground floor: China, Asia, and Egypt – absolute treasures! The European section feels a bit flat in comparison, more focused on historical knowledge. You can skip most of the second floor if you're short on time. 💎 Tate Modern: 1.5h Pop Art is super fun, and there’s a free 45-minute guided tour at the top of every hour. Highly recommend joining to get deeper insights into the curation. Personally, I found it more interesting than the Pompidou in Paris – the artworks here are much more expressive and thought-provoking! 💎 Wallace Collection: 2h A hidden gem! Free guided tours from 2:30-3:30 PM (first-come, first-served at the front desk). They’ve got quirky treasures like what looks like an armillary sphere, but it’s actually a storage device for quill pens – one part opens to reveal ink, the other part opens for sand to dry the ink faster! 💎 National Gallery: 1.5h The layout is a bit chaotic, and while there are plenty of artworks, none stood out to me as memorable (personal opinion!). 💎 Natural History Museum? Amazing exterior! If you’re into natural history, go for it – but it’s not really my thing. #travelchecklist #uktrip #travellerswonderland #100waysoftravel #localguides #familytrip #旅行灵感 #博物馆
