Established as a home for abandoned children, the Foundling Hospital was the UK’s first children’s charity and first public art gallery. Today the site is a museum of art and social history; which houses work by 18th-century artists, holds the world's largest collection of Handel memorabilia, and displays objects from the Hospital's archives. Enjoy a privately guided tour of this mansion, and savour lunch at Benares, a restaurant applauded for its modern take on Indian cuisine with a pinch of British ingredients.
