Kenwood - one of London's hidden gems

The edge of Hampstead Heath and surrounded by tranquil landscaped gardens, Kenwood is one of London's hidden gems. The House, its breathtaking interiors and stunning art collection
I could discover the vast array of masterpieces hanging in this grand setting, including Rembrandt's self-portrait, and be awed by architect Robert Adam's magnificent library.

Amazing Architecture and Stunning Artwork you can meet there, also very friendly staff  talking about story of this house. Thank you so much for that.

Parliament Hill Viewpoint





 I enjoyed walking across park in autumn time



























 The paintings were all collected by Edward Cecil Guinness, 1st Earl of Iveagh, who bequeathed his outstanding collection to the nation in 1927.




 One of the greatest interiors by one of the masters of his art. Kenwood is a masterpiece created by the famous 18th-century Scottish architect Robert Adam. He extended the house and designed many of the rooms – with the star attraction being the Great Library.
The Great Library was returned to its original colour scheme as part of a huge refurbishment project which was completed in 2013.
