So what do you do when you arrive in London and raindrops keep falling on your head? Take an umbrella and visit a museum! Most of them are even for free, so you save your money to buy some souvenirs! In any case for every taste there is at least one museum: Science Museum, Natural History Museum, Victoria and Albert Museum, National Portrait Gallery, National Gallery, British Museum, Museum of London, London Transport Museum, Royal London Hospital Museum, London Canal Museum, London Museum of Jewish Life, London Fire Brigade Museum, Tate Modern, Cartoon Museum and many more. Maybe after couple of hours in a museum the sun will come back again and you can enjoy the rest of the day strolling around in London but if it keeps on raining, just enter the next museum, there are over 300 to choose from or spend the saved money by going shopping.
