NATURAL HISTORY MUSEUM AND KENSINGTON GARDENS

22:00 0 Comments A+ a-

A sunny day in London can be quite rare, so I took this opportunity to be a bit of a tourist and see the city I live in.

I started off at the Natural History Museum. The building itself has beautiful architecture, but inside it holds over 80 million items from dinosaur skeletons and insects to minerals and botany.








The Darwin Centre - home to tens of millions of preserved specimens.









Leaving the museum on exhibition road, you can see the original outer building of the Geological Survey Museum, which was added to the Natural History Museum in 1986. 


Outside the Victoria Albert Museum.


Walking up Exhibition road, you reach Kensington Road, which is makes the south border of Hyde Park and Kensington Gardens.

Royal Albert Hall faces The Albert Memorial



Kensington Gardens


The Round Pond, which is directly in front of Kensington Palace.

A short walk to Queensway Station and back home for dinner!
