The Natural History Museum United Kingdom

Add photo Bookmark

Great Victorian architecture and the museum holds a large collection of natural history. The Science museum and the V&A Museum are within a short walk. The museums are free to enter. The Natural History Museum is open late until 22.00 on the last Friday of every month so get that shot with fewer people.

Thank you very much for your suggested change. We will check it as soon as possible and update this spot.

A wide angle lens around 16-40mm is best. There is no entrance fee to get into this museum. The shot is taken above the main entrance. No tripods are allowed but you might get away with a micro tripod as the shot is taken from a balcony.

I am planning a trip to London and also to the Natural History Museum: 1) What focal length have you used? 2) Is it possible to go to the steps without paying the entrance fee? Thanks in advance Oliver

Oh I wanted to shoot this spot sooooo badly, but there was a queue across the whole street although it wasn't raining...

see my tip about late opening time, the crowd thins out completely after 21:00

Manuel Becker 15.04.2015

Yeah that's a great tip, already read it. Only had 2 days in London, so I hadn't the choice to use that timing. The only thing I would be missing are those sun rays I saw on many images from this spot, coming through the windows at the top, when going there this late.
