Anybody who has a passing interest in the arts will thank themselves forever more if they decide to visit the city of London. The capital city really is a wonderful place to be if you are a fan of artwork of any kind. The first thing on the agenda for anybody should be the National Portrait Gallery. Visiting the wonderful gallery is a breathtaking experience and it really beggars belief that entrance to the regular exhibitions is entirely free of charge. This leads me to an interesting point. London is meant to be quite an expensive place to visit, but I would argue against this. There are dozens of free art exhibitions all over the city and with careful planning and research you could probably find something to entertain yourself with for free every day of the week. Add to that the cheap cost of transport in the capital and you have some very affordable attractions to visit. Food shouldn’t worry you either. Stay out of the very best restaurants in the city and you can eat good food for perfectly reasonable prices.

Another great thing to do if you are a fan of the arts is to make a trip to the theatre. London is famous for both the number of theatres it has and also the quality of the shows. Book now for Wizard of Oz tickets and you might just squeeze into one of the first performances of this eagerly anticipated new show.

If you plan ahead you can have a very affordable trip to London and see some wonderful artwork for very little money.
