London Transport Museum

TransportHistoryChildrenClosed · Opens 10amFrom £24.5Covent Garden

Untergebracht in der ehemaligen Blumenmarkthalle von Covent Garden, ist das London Transport Museum weitaus fesselnder, als sein Name vermuten lässt. Es zeigt, wie der Verkehr das Wachstum Londons prägte – von der weltweit ersten U-Bahn über den Routemaster-Bus bis hin zu Harry Becks ikonischem Netzplan der Tube. Kinder lieben die interaktiven Fahrsimulatoren und die Gelegenheit, in echten Fahrzeugen Platz zu nehmen. Die Reproduktionen historischer Plakate im Museumsshop sind wirklich begehrenswert. Die Tickets gelten ein Jahr lang.
