Exploring modern and contemporary art

#ldninsider Tate Modern, for example: the city’s leading art spot is also the most popular modern art gallery in the world. Which, surely, is something to shout about. Housed inside the imposing shell of the old Bankside Power Station, the Tate Modern is a relatively young art gallery. The gallery is London’s most-visited attraction, having recently overtaken the venerable British Museum; it pulls in a whopping 5.5 million visitors annually. This is the reason why you should visit this museum on your trip to London. Tate Modern is all about the here and now. Everything you’ll find within the gallery is modern art, dating only as far back as 1900.
