Gain a deeper understanding of the local culture at the Saatchi Gallery, the Southbank Centre, the Royal Academy of Arts and the Photographers' Gallery.
If you've got a keen interest in art, don't forget to visit the Tate Britain, the National Gallery, the Victoria and Albert Museum and the Wallace Collection. Take a look around and if one of the works intrigues you, chat to the staff about its background.

Seeing a first-class show can be an uplifting experience. Book tickets at the Globe Theatre, Royal Opera House, the Hammersmith Apollo and the Victoria Palace Theatre for a special night out.
The fairways of the Wimbledon Park Golf Club, the Richmond Park Golf Course and Putt in the Park are calling. Practise your swing, play a few friendly rounds with mates and try to drop some strokes off your game.
Kids can be marvellous travel buddies, especially if you go to awesome places! For a memorable family day out, take a trip to the British Library, Covent Garden Market, Sea Life London Aquarium and the Madame Tussaud's Wax Museum.
No matter how many times you may have seen them before, the playful animals at the ZSL London Zoo, Vauxhall City Farm and the Kentish Town City Farm can still surprise you.
If you’re looking for something a little more thrilling to do with the little ones, you should check out the London Wonderground, the Oasis Go-Kart Track and All Star Lanes-Holborn.
