The main purpose was to visit the Hallyu (Korean Wave) Exhgibition and attend the introductory symposium talk. As an established fan of the K Drama genre, I found the exhibition to be a delightful and very carefully curated collection of material that vividly presents historical and contemporary cultural material from and of this very remarkable country. For really up to date examples of Hallyu in action, then YouTube and Netflix are readily available. However, the exhibition takes just a few of these examples and places them in a considerably larger context than entertainment and fashion by itself. I loved the experience and would recommend it highly to anyone, of any age, who is a fan of Korean pop, drama, fashion, or history. Only a few weeks left.

I have been on previous trips but never wrote a review. In addition to an eclectic and amazing collection that spans cultures and artistic genres, on this trip we saw a special exhibition of Donatello. I have also been to Florence so familiar with his work, but there were pieces that I'd never seen. It was an excellent exhibition that included work of his peers as well as a stylistic resurgence in the 19th century. It was worth the visit.

We were staying close by, so had the opportunity to visit three times, each visit for an hour or so. We thought this to be the most interesting tourist attraction in London, with intriguing displays of - just about everything! If you have to pick one museum, this should be your first choice, and plan on 2-3 hours if only visiting once.

We explored the extensive jewelry exhibit, which was a revelation of craftsmanship and artistry from as long ago as 3000 bc. The goldwork was remarkable and we were astonished by the fine platinum pieces. Separately, there is a fine ironwork collection. There is also a central outdoor area where people refreshed themselves.

We didn't know what to expect and had only planned for two hours. Definitely needed more time than that. Especially We appreciated that a volunteer let us know that a one hour tour was starting shortly with another volunteer. Our guide was very knowledgeable and passionate (I think his name is Graham) about the exhibits. We learned so much. The jewelry exhibits deserve at least an hour. Thank you for a wonderful experience

This was the best museum we visited in London. The range of different types of items available to see here was excellent. Ranging from sculptures, relics, fashion, cartoons, jewelry, silver, and so much more. We visited on a Friday, where the museum stays open later than other days, until 10pm. Sadly, when we were arriving at the jewelry section (one we were looking forward to the most) around 5pm, the staff was closing it up, and we were not allowed to enter. I don't know if this is always the case on Fridays, but definitely something to be mindful of if this is an area that is a priority for you.

We visited here in mid May and arrived right at opening, which was a great decision. We were able to explore the museum at our leisure, barely seeing other visitors during the hour and a half or so we were there. They had some really fascinating reproductions made by creating molds of the originals or similar processes.

Absolutely incredible experience. My daughter and I arrived a few minutes before it opened. There was a queue which very swiftly moved inside. We hadn't been before, but naturally found ourselves taking an immediate left down to the level which had renaissance and religious artefacts. Almost immediately a lovely chap - older gentleman - who worked there came to talk to us. He was friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. He advised us that it gets hot and busy on the higher levels and that we should go and see the jewellery section early. However before we wandered off to do that, he pulled out a drawer and said, you don't want to miss seeing these sketches by Rembrandt! We were mind blown by the V&A. I had always wanted to go and it certainly exceeded my expectations. Every member of staff was helpful and enthusiastic in giving us directions. We loved every moment, and everything we saw. A huge thank you to the V&A.

Exceptional museum to spend a few hours, with free entry it is a great activity for affordable London. The architecture of the museum is a delight and each time I have been I have discovered a different display or area to gaze at. This time it was the Rodin pieces and another visit to the Cast Courts, totally a favourite to look at these reproductions of wonders from history - made in the late 1800s. Sadly for us, the DIVA exhibition was sold out, the display in the shop certainly suggested it would be a great paid exhibition to visit.

I went to see the new Diva exhibition at the V and A on 24th June, it had just opened. It wasn't that busy I didn't have to queue up. It was an amazing exhibition, iouas great to see all the costumes of Adele, Tina Turner, Cher, Shirley Bassey etc You can take photos and you have a headset that is interactive with the exhibition and plays the music of the artist that you are standing in front of, eg Whitney Houston 'I will always love you' In the first part of the exhibition before you go upstairs, they have Marilyn Manroe's costume from 'Some Like it Hot' and Judy Garland's costume and there is a large screen which you can stand in front of watch clips of the films that they are from. I could have stayed longer it was interesting seeing all the costumes close up. The museum itself is beautiful and has lots of great other exhibitions. The courtyard is lovely to sit and have a coffee and a bite to eat, whilst watching the children play in the pool in the summer. Also the cafe in the museum is in a wonderful setting and great food. The staff are all happy and friendly. Toilets are really modern and plentiful and accessible. Always a pleasure to visit this museum.
