NEXT MONTH the capital is set to get a HUGE new multi-million attraction with never- seen-before areas.
Opening on November 28, the £427million London Museum will be in Smithfield in the General Market.
And the best thing about the new attraction is that it will be completely free to visit.
It will be the world’s largest city museum with three different spaces documenting the past 10,000 years of the capital with over seven million objects on display.
One area will be called ‘Real Time’ and feature a covered street where visitors can explore real time data about different parts of London.
In the second space, ‘Our Time’, will be the centre of the museum with events and activities including immersive theatre.

Around ‘Our Time’ there will also be 13 installations about London, a restaurant and a bookshop, with festivals and markets planned for the future too.
For extra fun, after-hours DJ sessions are also planned for Fridays and Saturdays.
The main gallery will then be known as ‘Past Time’ and can be found underground.
The gallery will take visitors through London’s history with exhibits including the recent ‘Piranhas’ artwork by Banksy as well as older pieces such as Charles I’s execution vest.
Notable other objects that will be on show at the museum will include the swimming trunks worn by Tom Daley for the 2012 London Olympics and Paul Simon from The Clash’s bass guitar, which he smashed on stage.
On the lower level of the museum there will also be a giant six-metre tall window that will let visitors look through to a tunnel where the Thameslink trains pass.
In 2028, the museum will open even more areas inside the Poultry Market building with galleries including ‘Temporary Time’, ‘Imagined Time’ and ‘Deep Time’.
This building will house the museum’s temporary exhibitions, collection stores and learning centre.
In ‘Imagined Time’, there will be a platform hanging beneath the ceiling with different installations reflecting London’s past, present and imagined future.
The General Market first opened in 1883 as a meat market but has remained abandoned for the past 30 years.
The Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan, previously said: “The opening of the new London Museum will be a hugely significant moment both for London and internationally.
“Backed by one of the largest ever cultural investments in our capital, London Museum will attract millions of visitors and Londoners and reinforce our status as the cultural capital of the world.
“London Museum celebrates the past, creates opportunities in the present and will inspire future generations, as we continue to build a better London for everyone.”
