Scenic spot introduction:

The National Gallery is also known as the National Gallery. Its collection covers typical masterpieces from almost all periods in European art history and is of great appreciation value. Most of the works in the museum were donated by private individuals or purchased by the museum, so the style is obviously different from other European art museums. Even if you don’t know much about art, visiting this unique art palace can intuitively realize the borderless and shocking power of art.

Attractions distribution:

The National Gallery is located on the north side of Trafalgar Square in central London. It is divided into four wings: southeast, northwest and southeast. It is displayed in chronological order and collects as many as 2,300 paintings from the 13th century to the 19th century, including Leonardo da Vinci's famous charcoal sketch of "The Virgin and Child with Saint Anne and Saint John the Baptist", as well as paintings from the Netherlands, Italy, France and Spain, etc.
