STRAND.   Built on the grounds of a Tudor palace, this grand 18th-century structure now houses shops, restaurants and three museums. The Courtauld Institute of Art Gallery prominently features Impressionist works, along with items by Rembrandt, Michelangelo and Turner. The Hermitage Rooms briefly replicates the interior of the Winter Palace and displays some of the St. Petersburg museum's acquired works. The Gilbert Collection features exquisite decorative arts, especially gold and silver objects, enamel miniatures and micromosaics. When you've finished perusing the galleries, make sure to visit the splendid fountain courtyard. TUBE: Temple   (© 10Best)
