A prestigious venue of 5,000 seats, (again named after Queen Victoria's hubby) which is probably best known for the annual prom concerts. The vast interior is elaborately decorated however as no tours are available the only way in is to book a concert, be it rock, pop or classical.
Underground: Piccadilly Line
Bus Routes: 9, 10, 52, 70
| | Connections for Kensington and Chelsea: The area is easily reached by public transport as tube and bus connections to the rest of London are excellent. If you are flying into Heathrow Airport, you can take the Airbus or Underground (Piccadilly Line, change at Earl's Court for the District Line to High Street Kensington). If you arrive at Gatwick Airport, take the Gatwick Express (train) to Victoria Station and then take the Underground to your destination (Circle, District and Victoria Lines). With buses a good number to remember is 15, this will take you round the major tourist attractions at a much cheaper price than an official sight seeing tour!
