V&A Museum Dundee

The V&A is an imposing concrete structure designed by Japanese architect Kengo Kuma, sitting at Dundee’s Waterfront Esplanade. Its striking facade provides ample opportunity for photos. Entry is free with the option to visit carefully curated paid exhibitions. The public spaces are generous and airy, the exhibition spaces less so. The free permanent collection documents Scottish design showcasing a wide range of exhibits. At the time of writing there was a mesmerising kinetic installation in the main hall Shylight by Drift. The museum is family friendly with activities to engage younger members of your party. You can visit Tatha Kitchen and bar for a range of home baking, salads, soups and sandwiches as well as tea and coffee. The food is of a high standard and is fresh and inviting. There is an option to sit on the outdoor terrace . There are lockers available, ample clean toilet facilities. You’ll find plenty of benches and seats to stop and enjoy the surroundings.
