這次與 Art Fund合作的博物館企劃，第二站來到倫敦花園博物館（Garden Museum），座落泰晤士河南岸，博物館由十一世紀的聖瑪麗教堂發展而成，本身就是古蹟，從館內的彩繪窗也看得見教堂的痕跡，也是全世界第一座以園藝史為主題的博物館。
除了來倫敦一定會造訪的大英博物館或國家美術館，其實倫敦有很多像這樣以特定主題的博物館，這次的博物館企劃就是想介紹這些不見得知名的好去處，看過其他橫跨各國、各時代的豪邁館藏，會發現好好地講一件事也特別具有魅力，格外可愛，像花園博物館除了細數園藝歷史，也展出很多古代和現代的園藝工具，還有以植栽花朵為靈感創作的藝術品，當然也有各種盆栽和種子，搭配博物館多彩、帶有生命力的內裝風格，讓人逛得相當愉悅。
博物館裡也有一座花園，很有生意頭腦在旁邊開了一間咖啡廳，雖然和外頭繁忙的街道只有咫尺之遙，但午後時光在花園裡喝著下午茶，彷彿像在度假一樣身處不同的世界。
The second museum of our journey with Art Fund is the Garden Museum!
Located on the south bank of the Thames, the Garden Museum is the very first museum about the history of gardening in the world and the only one in Britain. It provides us with a ticket to step into the history and development of gardens and gardening in the UK.
Unlike many other museums which have exhibitions gathered over thousands of years across the world, the Garden Museum only tells a simple story of gardening. And that is also the charm of it and the reason why I am really fond of this museum.
Not only is the museum informative, but it is also immersive! Stepping into the garden and Café of the museum, it’s like a hidden Garden of Eden that creates a perfect tranquillity in the middle of hustle and bustle. It is a great refreshment to take a sip of coffee and enjoy the garden after the exploration of the museum.
