V&A Museum

The world's greatest decorative arts museum — 5,000 years of human creativity from ancient China to contemporary design, in a Victorian palace in South Kensington. The Cast Courts (plaster casts of Trajan's Column and Michelangelo's David), the Fashion and Textile galleries, and the temporary exhibitions are consistently superb. Free entry always.
