South Bank Centre Post-war culture boom

Belvedere Road Near Waterloo Station London, London SE1 8XX +44 8703 800 400 http://www.southbankcentre.org.uk/

The South Bank Centre was created in the 1960s, after the Festival of Britain in 1951 inspired renewed interest in the arts scene in the United Kingdom. Although it is one of the top cultural venues in the city, it typifies 60s architecture and is, therefore, not pretty. The South Bank Centre is made up of the Royal National Theatre (comprising the Olivier, Lyttelton and Cottesloe theatres), and the National Film Theatre which shows the cream of international art-house films. The South Bank district is home to many other galleries and attractions, such as Vinopolis. Review © 2009, Wcities
