Madame Tussauds – Wax Museum at Bakers Street, London

It is difficult enough to actually see famous people in real life let alone get up close and personal with them. But at Madame Tussauds the impossible becomes possible. At Madame Tussauds, not only you get see your favourite artists or the Royal family, but you also get to take pictures with them. Well, they are of course not real, but they are only wax models of famous people.

There are numerous galleries and to name a few, The Royal Family, Hollywood and Bollywood stars, World Leaders and many more. Please pardon me for the poor quality of the pictures. Some of the rooms are too dark.

There are 11 galleries and the first room contains the world’s most famous stars. Visitors get to experience the world of glamour at MT’s A-list Party. Greeting you here are some of Hollywood’s famous stars, Brat Pitt and Angelina Jolie.

Do remember to dress at your best as here you will get to mingle with Hollywood’s favourite stars. Just strike a pose with the biggest names in fashion and get your cameras ready to capture that moment.

As the place was so crowded, I nearly missed Christina Aguilera which was standing at the corner. I must say that, they did a very good job in making a wax version of her. She looks so real!

One guy nearly knocked over Justin Timberlake as he was standing right in the middle of the gallery. So if you are coming here for a visit, do take care not to topple over any of the wax models there.
