🇬🇧The National Gallery, London, UK🎨

#MayGoodPlaces2025 The National Gallery, located directly opposite Trafalgar Square in central London, is one of the most important art institutions in the UK and a world-renowned public art gallery. Since its establishment in 1824, the National Gallery has been dedicated to collecting and displaying works by Western painting masters from the 13th to the early 20th century. It currently has a collection of more than 2,300 paintings covering major art periods such as the Italian Renaissance, the Dutch Golden Age, Baroque art, and French Impressionism. The gallery has free admission (except for special exhibitions) and is one of London's most popular cultural attractions. The museum has a strong lineup of works, including masterpieces by Leonardo da Vinci, Raphael, Rembrandt, Velázquez, Caravaggio, Turner, Monet, Van Gogh and other masters. For example, Van Gogh's "Sunflowers", Monet's "Water Lilies", Botticelli's "Venus and Mars" and Vermeer's "Young Woman with a Virgin" are all must-see classics for tourists and art lovers. The museum is clearly divided into different spaces, with exhibits classified by era and region. Whether you want to take a quick look or take a closer look, you can plan your route freely. The museum also offers audio guides (in multiple languages), free guided tours, children's educational activities and temporary exhibitions, suitable for audiences of all ages and levels. The attached cafe and bookstore also provide visitors with space to relax and purchase souvenirs. The National Gallery not only displays works of art, but also carries the UK's emphasis on cultural education. Whether you are an art novice or a professional learner, this is an urban treasure that can inspire you and let you feel the charm of art. After visiting the art gallery, you can take a break, take photos, etc. in Trafalgar Square, and you can also see Big Ben from a distance. Occasionally, there are street performances in the square.
