"British Museum is one of the most popular and interesting museums to visit in London, showcasing more than 13 million artifacts of human history, art, and culture. Artifacts and objects from Babylon, China, Assyria and various parts of Europe, displayed here, leave people fascinated and awestruck. Add this to your itinerary since it is one of the museums located in Central London."

"Robert Smirke (1852), Foster + Partners (2000), Rogers Stirk Harbour + Partners (2014)📕 Page 99. The British Museum was founded in the most atypical of conditions, at least in comparison to other European collections. The museum has its origin in the personal collection of a physician, not a monarch."

"The British Museum is dedicated to the past history of the human race. The culture of each country and art is represented and show through discovered artifacts found. Mummy tombs from previous egyptian kings and queens and discovered bodies lie in the museum for people to look at."

"Stop 2: Get Cultured At The Victoria & Albert Museum (V&A) Take your fashionista to the V&A to marvel at all the incredible fashion through the decades for the second stop on your London itinerary. This large museum is a treasure trove for historians, designers, and connoisseurs alike and will educate even the most ignorant of tourists on the styles and traditions of the world’s multicultural past. Make sure to block out a decent amount of time as the V&A is a huge museum."

"Lovers of culture should head to Exhibition Road, home to some of London’s best museums and galleries. There you will find the remarkable Victoria and Albert Museum, which offers free general admission, talks and tours. The foundation stone of the current V&A building was laid in 1899 by Queen Victoria, and the stunning building houses thousands of art and design objects from a wide range of periods, including Art Deco, Medieval, Renaissance and Surrealism."

"PRACTICAL INFORMATION: The museum is open Thursdays to Sundays from 11:00 am to 7:00 pm. Admission if free but you must book your preferred time-slot in advance."

"And why wouldn’t you when there are planes and trains and spaceships and rockets, interactive exhibits, computers and cameras through the ages, and a history of mathematics?. While you’re there, be sure to catch up with Eric, the UK’s first working robot, from 1928, who has been brought back to life by a 2016 Kickstarter campaign.

"The Science Museum in South Kensington is one of the best London museums for kids, and our top choice for interactive exhibits and amazing educational experiences. There are seven floors of exhibits across award-winning exhibitions and permanent galleries. With so much to do, visiting the Science Museum is also one of the best free things to do in London with kids."

"There’s something here for absolutely everyone with seven floors of exhibits, including the Apollo 10 command module and a flight simulator. The in-house cinema shows scientific films in 3D, where visitors can explore the depths of the ocean and never-ending outer space."

"A day is the perfect amount of time to see the highlights: Cardiff Castle, the National Museum, and Cardiff Bay. Learn about Welsh history, culture, and language on a walking tour or by talking to locals. Spend the evening in Cardiff."

"62 Seymour Street, W1H 5BN Sabrina Gidda, a two-time Roux scholarship finalist, is now heading the kitchen at this Portman Village Italian. She does a sublime rose-veal tonnato, parmesan gnocchi with venison ragù and slow-cooked lamb shoulder with salsify and bagna cauda - all dishes that blew us away. With dedicated service from a crack front-of-house team, this large and comfortable place is one of our most exciting discoveries."

"Housed in the old Hampstead Central Library on Finchley Road, Camden Arts Centre began life as a local initiative, providing art classes for the community. Now, it is a powerhouse of contemporary art showing ambitious exhibitions by well-known British and international artists such as Kara Walker, Rose English, Ben Rivers and Jennifer Tee. The bookshop stocks a range of artist’s editions, and the garden is the perfect spot for a sunny afternoon."

"In 1965 a former library was converted into a gallery to promote contemporary art. The exhibitions feature emerging artists, international artists debuting in London, significant historic figures who have inspired contemporary practice, and group shows relevant to current debate.

"The pandemic has postponed the ‘launch proper’ of new West Dulwich modern Indian restaurant Heritage, but the team behind it are raring to go. So much so that, in this interim period, they’ve launched a takeaway service featuring a range of set dining sharing boxes (£38 – £42 for two). The restaurant comes from executive chef Dayashankar Sharma, who honed his skills in the kitchens of Michelin-starred restaurants, Tamarind and Zaika among them."

"Coming from an ex-Tamarind chef, Heritage aims to cook "nostalgic family-taught dishes and unusual foods from lesser-known Indian regions and communities"."

"With outposts in Shanghai, Hong Kong, Singapore, Guangzhou, Incheon and Paris, the super-luxe, Michelin-starred Imperial Treasure already had quite the reputation before landing in St James’s in early 2019. Admittedly, it got off to a slightly rocky start (earlier reviewers were horrified to learn that the £100 duck only consisted of one course), but such wrongs have been duly righted. Now, the ultra-delicious Beijing bird is served first with pancakes – sliced, as is tradition, table-side – and then in a choice of tasty sources (GQ suggests the ginger and spring onion), making the price rather reasonable."

"With a sibling Shanghai restaurant which holds two Michelin stars, it’s safe to say Imperial Treasure comes from solid stock. Deftly handled classics include delicate dim sum and mains like a juicy lemon chicken or some of the best fried rice we’ve had in a long time. As you might expect, this isn’t the cheapest Chinese takeaway in London with a set menu from two starting at £90, but for a special occasion we think it’s well worth the splurge."

"Restaurants Chinese St James’s. One of only a handful of London restaurants dealing in refined Cantonese food, Imperial Treasure is a grand, high-ceilinged spot in Mayfair with classy service and even better barbecued duck (the delicious kind you’ll find hanging in the window in Chinatown). The prices border on blow-out, so order carefully."

"We’ve been going here for some time and it’s always a great personal service from Bobby. Currently available for collection. 31/01/2021: Delicious and beautifully presented takeaway this evening - as good as previous dine-in visits in less challenging times!"

"This more-casual-than-most sushi bar will take the decision of your hands if you go for the traditional “leave it up to you” sushi option, when you pick your number of pieces and the chef serves up what he thinks best. If you want to regain a little control, you choose to tuck into the likes of butterfish carpaccio served with foie gras and an Iberico pork teriyaki. 114 Great Portland Street, Fitzrovia, W1W 6PA, sushiatelier.co.uk"

"Allow the chefs here to make their choice for you and go for one of their omakase platters. Alternatively, if you’re in the DIY mood, they also do a DIY handroll party kit. Follow them on Instagram: @sushiatelierlondon."

"Of the seven branches across London, Masala Zone Covent Garden will most appeal to younger diners, as they can gawk at the traditional Indian puppets that festoon the place as they wait for their food. Although they can occupy themselves at every branch with colouring books and crayons which are provided by the amenable staff. Mini thalis with milder curries are available from £6, and for those that can handle more heat, the rolled dosas prove popular."

"Bayswater, Camden Town, Covent Garden, Earls Court, Islington, Soho, SelfridgesMasala Zone offers traditional Indian restaurant food, as well as street food. You can also get a delicious thali platter for just over £10, including rice, chapati and a great selection of main courses. If your little ones are under seven, they can eat from the kid’s menu for just five pounds."

"Masala Zone offers good, hearty Indian food across a number of locations, all featuring unfussy and comfortable atmospheres. Children are well accommodated, with under-sevens having the option of eating from the versatile children's menu. With seven outposts in London, this could be a good option the next time you plan a family meal in the city."
