What To Do And See In Kensington, London
In and around this wealthy area of London is a vibrant colourful culture and an incredible range of historical sites. It is traditionally known for its shops, cafés and bars that gather on the upmarket high streets, however there is far more to experience in Kensington, starting with these five highlights.
1. The Natural History Museum
Building, Museum
It would be impossible not to mention one of Kensington’s most illustrious museums. The Natural History Museum is without a doubt the most expansive and astonishingly decorative preserver of our ancient and modern history. The sheer size and presence of the building is enough to keep you entertained without even entering the door. It’s a necessity to take a selfie with Darwin and explore the dinosaur exhibitions, but the minerals room is the true hidden gem. It is filled with endless rows of cabinets housing an array of magical colours from many different places that may change your perception of the world around you.
