What to see during and after COVID 19 quarantine in London?

London is one of the most important financial cities in the world. Recently, we have been in quarantine and we may be at risk for contracting COVID 19. Doctors and epidemiologists around the world recommend keeping a distance of 2 meters (6 feet) and also using a face mask for getting out, washing your hands for at least 20 seconds and applying antibacterial gel.

Look for information in the CDC page to see the latest update of the COVID-19 and recommendations in the USA or in WHO, World Health Organization, to the latest information about the COVID around the world. Check also the local governments pages to see the rules in each state or country.

You could read on the WHO website with info in chinese, arabic, english, spanish, french and russian languages.

  • – Travel advice.
  • – Questions and answers.

Traveling is not allowed. You can only be repatriated or go to another country if you were required to by the Government as medical support such as doctors or nurses. The majority of borders are closed without a date of opening. Pay attention to WHO, consulates and embassy information on their websites.

We will show you some places that you should visit when they open. In the meanwhile you could see them as a virtual tour. These Museums are closed temporarily, but some of them will be opened next month with some requirements.

1.-British Museum

You can see on virtual tour more than 60 rooms with history of cultures from Africa, Oceania, Asia, Europe with handicrafts, crockery, prints and drawings. My favorite visits are: Mexico with culture from Maya, Aztec, Zapotec, Olmec, Mixtec. I like exhibitions from Europe (1400 to 1800), Catholic, Jews, Protestants and exotic objects from Royal treasuries.

2.- Museum of London.

There is so much to see in London and also audio to hear on your virtual visit. For          example: Clothes’ designs through war, Plague, Fire, Medieval and Rome, London and Transport.

In July, this Museum shares eight exhibitions more and if you would like to see them you must book on its calendar. I suggest to see “The clash: London calling” because this exhibition has diaries, instruments and notes that reflect social and political feeling through music.

3.- National Gallery.

This Gallery offers eighteen virtual rooms where you will find great paintings relating to  bible history, christianity and protestant movement such as Moses, Martin Luther and Jesus Christ and You could see Renaissance masterpieces from Northern Italy, the Netherlands and Germany.
