Victoria & Albert Museum, London

The Victoria and Albert Museum has one of the most amazing collections of precious (and sometimes bizarre) objects on the planet. It would take days to get a decent look at the entire collection. And the building itself is equally amazing, almost a work of art in its own right. Even better, admission is free and you're allowed to take (non-flash) photos.

For some reason, I liked his expression

They have a fashion section ... but how did this get in?

Dame Edna's hat ... now that is fashion

Very fancy for a cafe

Not a painting ... a mosaic that took 20 years to make

Even the stairwells are good-looking

Jut another V&A stairwell

Mediaeval door
