extraordinary open-air museum

Yorkshire Sculpture Park is an outdoor art museum located in Wakefield, which is 30 min by car from Leeds , or 1.5 hours from Manchester. The property - situated on the 500 acre 18th century Breton Hall estate - is the largest sculpture park in UK. There is a permanent collection as well as temporary artworks which are changed every few months. Artworks from some of the leading artists in the world are on display, including Barbara Hepworth, Henry Moore, and David Nash. We were also excited to see the works by Damien Hirst on our visit. Majority of the artwork are placed outdoor, with selected pieces inside the 6 galleries. There is also a restaurant inside the main building, where lunch is served - burger, pizza, sandwiches- are all available. There are indoor and outdoor seatings, and the outdoor tables has a great view of the museum park. The Yorkshire Sculpture Park is a fantastic place for family or art lovers to view large size sculptures, and at the same time enjoy nature . As the property is quite huge, it would take at least half a day to walk and view all the pieces at ease. There are many photo opportunities! Entrance fee is £6 for adult, and free for children under 18. Tickets can be booked online in advance, and free parking is available. #英國景點 #musem #art #artlover #england
