🇬🇧 London | My Jaw Dropped for Hours at the V&A Museum
📍 Victoria and Albert Museum 🎟️ FREE ENTRY 📣 OFFICIAL DECLARATION: The V&A is now my #1 museum worldwide❗️❗️❗️ As an art novice, I planned to breeze through in 2 hours... Spoiler: That barely covered parts of the -1st and 0th floors! (There are 6 floors total!) After two visits (6+ hours), I barely saw it all—every room is unmissable! 🌟 Most Stunning Highlights 1️⃣ -1F Rooms 1-7 Each has one showstopper piece in wild colors/shapes. 2️⃣ -1F Room 10B Staircase ☀️ A sunlit architectural corner—genius design! 3️⃣ 0F Central Garden 🌿 The lawn + building color combo is chef’s kiss. 4️⃣ 0F Room 46 (Cast Courts) All replicas, but mind-blowing scale (like "seeing Mont Blanc for the first time" in 1873!). 5️⃣ 0F Room 17’s Grand Staircase 🏰 6️⃣ 2F Rooms 91-93 💎 Jewelry gallery = literal treasure chest. 7️⃣ 2F Rooms 65-69 🍴 Silverware so lavish, it’ll make your tea set blush. 8️⃣ 4F Rooms 140-145 🏺 Ceramics with next-level craftsmanship. ❤️ Why It Stole My Heart ✔️ Architecture: Columns, carvings, and that grand atrium vs. cozy galleries. ✔️ Curatorial Magic: Every doorway frames the perfect first-glance exhibit—how?! ✔️ Respect for Art: Even tiny items get detailed labels (no overcrowding!). ✔️ Humbling Scale: Left me feeling like a speck of dust in the universe. 🔥 Final Verdict: I thought this UK trip was my "last hurrah"—turns out it’s just the beginning! The world has SO many more museums (and wonders) waiting. I’m hooked! #VAMuseum #ArtEpiphany #LondonMustSee #MuseumAddict #TravelInspo 🇬🇧✨
