Review of The National Gallery from 21 May 2013
The best time for visit is early in the morning because it is not so overcrowded. I can't wait for "Vermeer and Music: The art of love and leisure" event it will be great! Especially the live performances where for the first time two paintings of Vermeer will be brought together with Vermeer’s Guitar Player.

Review of The National Gallery from 17 May 2013
Despite many visits to London, I had never been to the National Gallery. It's so easy to find, located right at Trafalgar Square. And it's really huge, so it's best to have an idea of what you might want to see before you arrive. You might as well visit the website, there's a lot of information there.

Really inspiring museum. If you are an art lover you should definitely visit it. Wide variation of exhibits but it tends to become crowded in the afternoon so make sure you go early in the morning.

Review of The National Gallery from 11 April 2013
I've been going since I was a child, my mum used to take me and then school, but I believe that in the old days you had to pay for it, when now it is free, such as great idea to attract tourist and to keep art alive. What I'd say to anyone who's never been is to pay a visit at least once, it's well worth your time and you won't regret it.

Review of The National Gallery from 7 April 2013
One thing you need to know about London is that many museums are for free. So is The National Gallery. This museum is a huge building with big beautiful rooms full of different paintings from different times in different styles. The rooms are largely structured after periods of time. You can spend hours at The National Gallery. The good news is: you do not have to! As The National Gallery is free, you can just walk in, look at some paintings and come back later to look at others. I would be surprised if not anyone could find a room or at least a single painting they like. I do not like every single work at The National Gallery, far from it actually, but amongst others, I enjoyed looking at some paintings of London and other cities. In addition, The National Gallery features a restaurant that I have not checked out yet, a shop where you can buy all kinds of art and London related stuff and a cafe that is worth a visit, mainly perhaps for the live piano music. Like some other museums, The National Gallery also sometimes does "late" events, where the museum is open longer and bands are playing in some of the rooms. The National Gallery is definitely one of the must see museums in London. Its central location makes it easy to reach and you can find many other interesting and nice places nearby. It is a tourist hotspot, but in my opinion, The National Gallery with its events and temporary exhibitions does not only appeal to tourists, but also to the people actually living in London. And if you are not in London, you could catch a glimpse on some works in the gallery on http://www.googleartproject.com/collection/the-national-gallery-london/
