The National Gallery
The National Gallery brings more than one thousand paintings together in central London, with works by Leonardo da Vinci, Vincent van Gogh, Uccello, Gentileschi and Turner. You can move through the collection at your own pace, following a curated route or shaping your own tour with an audio guide.
Family spaces and the Roden Centre for Creative Learning add places to play, learn and connect with paintings. Creative sessions, life drawing, talks, concerts, poetry readings and workshops extend the visit beyond the galleries, while cafés, restaurants and bars offer British produce in sit-down and takeaway settings. Personal sketching and photography are welcome in many areas, and online tutorials, games and podcasts continue the experience beyond the building.
Look for the Sainsbury Wing, which provides the main entrance for everyone. Around it, accessible facilities, baby-changing rooms, free Wi-Fi and a cloakroom support visits at different paces and with different needs.
