Natural History Museum, London

#summervacay One of the best #summervacay stops for families, the Natural History Museum is as entertaining as it is educational. Its stunning Victorian architecture alone makes it worth a visit. Inside, the giant blue whale, earthquake simulator, and dinosaur skeletons (including the iconic T. rex) are showstoppers for kids and adults alike. Summer often brings special exhibits and extended hours, making it easier to plan around sightseeing. Entry is free, and the South Kensington location puts you near Hyde Park for a post-museum stroll. Don’t forget to stop at the gift shop!
