J and I stumbled accidently upon this palace while walking down a busy street in central London. Built in 1547, this mansion became associated with the lavish entertainments of the royal court. Once a centre of the nation's naval power, today the Somerset House is an art gallery, an outdoor cinema, and a venue to a lively music scene featuring performances by Lily Allen, Mika, and Mogwai among others. Oh, and it also has an ice rink. London is getting ready for the Holidays.
