Get fancy at The National Gallery 🎨🎨 Getting There - Charring Cross Station or Leicester Square on the tube 🎟 Attractions - if you grow tired of the national gallery, the national portrait gallery is round the corner as well as London’s Theatre Land, and China town so plenty to do! 🏨Hotels - Lots of old school London glamour nearby. Check out the Ritz or the Savoy a couple of metro stops away. 🥂Food & Restaurants - there’s a decent cafe for a coffee and cake here, but head over to China town (a short five minute walk) from here for some dimsum or hit up Covent Garden for a meal in the piazza. 🎁Shopping - you’re very near Covent Garden here for some old English brands and nice bits to buy. #newyearadventure #london #CultureWalk #art #MyTripVlog #urbanexplorer #nationalgallery上海 Sheffer26

The National Gallery Of LondonPeople who like sophisticated arts and paintings should head to the national gallery located at trafalgar Square at London WC2N 5DN, United Kingdom. The gallery opens on a daily basis from 10am till 6pm and best of it all, free entrance! The national gallery is in a marble like building with a huge arch and thick pillars making this look like some high end gallery, but inside you will be able to see many art pieces and paintings. Although I do not know how to appreciate these paintings but something do tell me these paintings goes for thousands of dollars due to its unique frames and boarders on each paintings and also a guard in almost each room. #celebratewithtrip #musuem #gallery #london #uk #nationalgalleryKinnie Kong8

The National GalleryVisited the Rafael exposition (paid a hefty 27 pounds) and the collection of the national Gallery. Some very nice 'obtained' art can be seen here. You need to go here if you want to see the real 'Sunflowers' of Van Gogh (and not go to the Van Gogh museum in Amsterdam !). Also the masterpiece 'The Arnolfini Portrait' of Jan Van Eyck is here amongst other masterpieces. Three tours are nicely laid out. If you do all 3 of them all you have seen the whole gallery.ramezawwad14

The knowledge is rich, the explanation is detailed, and the explanation teacher is praised. There are many exhibits at the National Gallery, and there are many representative works of famous artists in various periods. If there is no one to explain it at the National Gallery, it is really a bit inconceivable.
The most satisfying explanation, professional painter 👨🏻🎨 is very professional, no matter whether the child or adult has taken a vivid Western art class, not only explaining the story of each work, the composition of each painting, the nuanced and vivid image, After learning, we ordinary people can also enjoy the Western oil painting works by themselves. We must ask for an explanation when we go to this kind of exhibition hall, otherwise we will go in vain. We can't understand what we see in vain. The money for this explanation is absolutely value-for-money.
The teacher's professional explanation made us have a good time at the National Gallery. Let us have a new understanding of the art collections of various periods. The 3-hour explanation, the teacher did not rest at all, and it was a great honor to meet such experts who are proficient in painting art.
The speech is in place, very valuable, and I will find him later.
Teacher Yan is very young but very professional, even I am an art layman also listens to the taste, thank you!
Nice trip, worth buying
