Opened in 2000, Tate Modern has amazed industry insiders, art lovers and tourists alike. The museum, located among the drab, concrete blocks of Bankside, has few of its original features; it used to be a 1950's power station. Inside, there are many innovative and attention-grabbing works, with a variety from 1900 to the present, from the most important artists of the century to today's rising stars. Admission is free for most exhibits. Check website for further details.

Before I came here I thought fish and chips had to be wrapped in newspaper, soaked in vinegar, and off a truck or food stand to be good. No more! On Toni...
