About

The Tate is London's largest modern art gallery, and is free to the public. The interior is huge, as the building used to be a power station that was later reopened as an art gallery in 2000.

The Tate Modern is right across the Millennium Bridge, one of London's newest and most artistic bridges. Under the bridge is the Thames River, and directly across is the elaborate and grand St. Paul's Cathedral. You might want to consider visiting all these sites on the same trip.
