Located at the heart of Trafalgar Square, the National Gallery houses the A-List celebrities of European art in Great Britain – with Van Gogh’s ‘Sunflowers’, Botticelli’s ‘Venus and Mars’ and Da Vinci’s ‘Virgin on the Rocks’ making a red-carpet appearance.
With names like these, as well as Monet, Rembrandt and Vermeer to add to the collection, it’s no surprise the National Gallery attracts visitors from all over the world. Its exterior is a work of art in itself and inside treats visitors to over 2,600 paintings. Wander across the floors and grand, high-ceiling rooms to discover everything from Medieval, Renaissance, Impressionist to the present day. Whether you’re wandering through alone or following a guide, take your time to stare up and get lost in the brush strokes.
