Best & Cool Science and Space Museums in Wimborne

"With more than three million visitors annually, the Science Museum is an attraction most kids get excited about in London. Situated on Exhibition Road in South Kensington, the Science Museum was initially intended to include the objects that had been shown during the Great Exhibition held in the Crystal Palace. Among the favorite attractions of children are Puffing Billy (the oldest steam locomotive), Stephenson’s Rocket, some of the first steam engines, and the documentation of the first typewriter."

"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."

"The Science Museum is a great place to take the kids before or after spending time outdoors in Hyde Park. There are many interactive galleries, IMAX films and rotating exhibits. For little kids, I highly recommend The Garden play area in the basement — my kids had a blast there."

"Kings College London only recently opened this permanent site for the Science Gallery, a dedicated space for showing contemporary artwork that explores scientific questions. Its inaugural exhibition is all about addiction, called Hooked, and previous shows in its travelling days have investigated blood, food and orifices. Think of it as looking at science through the eyes of an artist."

"Science Gallery London is an art-science-and-health inspired gallery in London. The free museum has been open since 2018 in London Bridge after a series of pop-up exhibits across London. The gallery aims to bring together scientists, artists, and communities with three themed seasons every year."

": Row upon row of glass jars, with everything from tiny organisms, to strange two-headed beasts, to examples of gross diseases, this museum can be very creepy at times, especially when it’s quiet. However, it’s so much more than the freakshow that it is sometimes made out to be, offering a unique insight into the history of surgery and advances in modern medicine. The next few months are your last chance to see the museum before it closes in 2017 for refurbishment, so get going!"

"The Royal Institution has been encouraging scientific minds since 1799, and it isn’t stopping anytime soon. At the Institution’s museum, you’ll can explore Faraday’s very own 1850s magnetic laboratory, get elemental with a interactive periodic table, and meet some of the characters that have frequented the Royal Institution throughout its history, including a staggering 14 Nobel Prize winners.

"St Michael’s Church is a beautiful little old church next to the Verulamium Museum. It’s considered one of the most significant surviving Anglo-Saxon buildings in England, making it one of the best historical places to visit in St Albans. The church was built either in the late 10th century or early 11th century and partly constructed using Roman bricks."

"By now you might have realised that St. Albans is a city that is packed full of religious history and St. Michael’s Church is no different. A church that is open for worship, there is regular church service held here each and every week. This includes your more standard services, as well as evening worships and children’s services too."

"Probably the first London opening to demonstrate the nature of the tail-end pandemic market: a corporate-indie (Harts Group) taking an absolutely premium Soho restaurant site (formerly Hix) and going hard on vibes, vibes, vibes. The large-format sharing plates — a short rib of beef; cochinita pibil; and an aping of Mexico City restaurant Contramar’s famous red-green sea bream all served with fixings and tortillas — are probably the trend to keep an eye on, following as they do from Santiago Lastra’s Kol, while frozen margaritas and a covetable mezcal range add their own buzz. If someone wanted to say “Soho is back,” they’d probably point here."

"The newest member of the ever-expanding family of London taquerias, El Pastor Soho will be bringing the company’s trademark tacos, tostadas, mezcal and a distinctly fiesta spirit to London’s West End. There’s not a single dud on the menu, which includes the house special taco, made with marinated pork shoulder and caramelised pineapple. 66-70 Brewer St, Soho, London W1F 9UP Nearest Tube: Piccadilly Circus"

"Taking over the old Hix space, El Pastor's latest Mexican restaurant is landing in Soho. Alongside tacos and tostadas, they have a bar with a "house party vibe" in the basement too."

"Good news for disorganised Londoners: most of the seats at new Brixton restaurant Temaki will be walk-ins, with only a few spots you can reserve. ‘Temaki’ means ‘hand roll’ in Japanese and this place claims to be London’s first hand-roll bar, so it’s kind of a big deal. Unsurprisingly, temaki sushi is the focus here – expect traditional combinations such as unagi eel or tuna with fresh wasabi and soy, as well as regularly rotating seasonal specials."

"In a nutshell: Handroll sushi bar in Brixton Market Where is it?. Unit 12 Market Row, Brixton, London, SW9 8LD Why should you care?. A top Japanese chef is promising to serve up some excellent hand rolls at this tiny Brixton sushi bar."

"Choose from mouthwatering bites from more than 40 vendors, browse stalls full of artisan produce and soak up the chilled vibes in the indoor and outdoor seating areas at Elephant and Castle's Mercato Metropolitano. If you're keen for more, check out its sister venue, Mercato Mayfair, which sits within an 18th-century St Mark’s Church, now a hub of international yet sustainable dining."

"London’s popular Italian food halls—found in Mayfair and Elephant & Castle—are back with their brilliant street food offerings Wednesday through till Sunday, for takeaway and deliveries only. Meanwhile, MM Grocery will continue to stay open throughout the week. Hand sanitisers will be out in both venues and social-distancing measures will apply."

"Things to do Event spaces Elephant & Castle. A 45,000 square foot market space offering a mixture of Italian and London based artisan producers, including ‘the best pizza maker’ from Naples, supposedly."
