There’s a Summer Fountain, the kids are so happy to play with water there, full of kids’ laughter. That area is gorgeous, can’t stop taking pictures, trying to capture all the amazing scene there. Try to go inside the building, but can’t really find the way to view the exhibition, just found one which requires ticket to go in. Anyway, the fountain area in the middle worth a visit already, too beautiful!
Somerset House is a stunning cultural hub in London, offering a mix of history, art, and architecture. The building itself is beautiful, with its grand courtyard that often hosts outdoor events, exhibitions, and ice skating in the winter. The art galleries and creative spaces inside always feature interesting and unique exhibitions, making it a must-see for art lovers. The riverside location adds to its charm, providing a peaceful spot to relax and enjoy the views. Whether you're attending an event or just exploring, Somerset House is a truly special place to visit in London.
This is an amazing space both as an example of Baroque architecture, art galleries and open public space.nnThis building was until 2000 the record office of births, deaths and marriages in the UK and the Square was the staff car park.nnEnjoy this great space, just off The Strand to relax and enjoy the London seasons
Wow! Somerset House is a beautiful building, it’s well kept and a lovely environment. I came to visit the cute exhibition here and I really enjoyed it, the hello kitty cafe is ADORABLE and the food was so yummy. The actual exhibition was very interesting and was decorated really well, I definitely felt like it was worth the cost and it was an enjoyable experience! Can recommend! Also no wait but get there early
We went to see the CUTE exhibition as an avid Hello Kitty fan I was quite excited to see it. Yes it was definitely quite interesting and made me for back to my childhood especially it was the time of the rise of “cute” era. However I the Hello Kitty part was only a small part of the exhibit hence I was a tad disappointed but still enjoyed the experience.nnFor the price the exhibition it was quite small and not a lot to see. What’s nice is we were able to go back in a few times to go around it. I do love that they have an online guide, where you scan the QR code and see some explanations in your phone browser. The shop at the end of the exhibit was underwhelming and quite pricey too. It’s generally well organised and staff were helpful.
