Leonarda, Michalangelo ve Raphael başta olmak üzere Rubens ve Rembrant için ayrı özel salonları mevcut. Bu sanatçıların yanında van Eyck, Goya, Velazquez, Cloude, Vernet, Vermeer gibi bir çok sanatçınında eserleri bulunuyor. Hafta içi internet üzerinden ücretsiz aldığım biletim ile sabah saat 10.20 gibi müzeye geldim. Herhangi bir sıra beklemedim. Size tavsiyem yaptıklarımı yapmanız. Birde yanınızada sıvı herhangi bir şey getirmeyin, müzeye sıvı alınmıyor.

Merece la pena visitarla, lleva mucho tiempo ver toda la Galería, así que ir con tiempo. Es recomendable reservar las entradas en su página web, son gratuitas y te ahorras las cola sin entradas. Está justo en la plaza de Trafalgar.

Went to the trouble of pre- booking. Which was a total waste of time as you are shown to the back of an enormous queue which moves slowly and would take an age to get entry. We gave up and went elsewhere.

A magnificent collection of artistic treasures housed in a beautiful building, all available gratis. A great range of artistic styles to surely suit all tastes. Shops and a café within, which are not stupidly expensive. I had to queue a while to get in; gone are the days of wandering in at one's will. I last went on a Saturday morning & it was very busy, but not uncomfortably so. I think the controlled level of entry, whilst annoying when you're in the queue, must help to keep numbers of people sensible within.

미술을 좋아하는 사람이라면 꼭 가야 하지만, 가기 전에 꼭 예약하고, 현재 전시 중인 그림이 어떤 것이 있는지 확인하고 가세요. 예약하지 않으면 오래 기다릴 수 있습니다. 그림이 항상 같은 위치에 있는 것이 아닌데다가 전시실이 굉장히 많기 때문에, 보고 싶은 그림을 찾다가 지칠 수 있습니다.

Check the website to confirm what artwork is on display. Sadly, when we went, the Van Gogh's were not. Left either way happy with all the Rembrandt pieces we were able to see.

Museo assolutamente da vedere. Bellissimo, a due passi dalla stazione metro "Leicester square". Collezione assolutamente ricca di pezzi unici e di opere incredibili.
