    Hiking

    The V&A Museum is one of the world's largest museums of art, design, and fashion. Highlights include plaster casts of famous sculptures (such as Michelangelo's Davis and Trajan's Column), inconspicuous fashion (from the 18th century to Dior, McQueen, and Vivienne Westwood), and a giant 16th-century bed.

    Of the three museums on the square (V&A, Science Museum, Natural History Museum), I least wanted to go to the V&A and would have been annoyed. The museum is truly fantastic—and significantly less crowded than the other two! Absolutely recommended.
