Free Family Event in London: Lonely Planet’s Pop-up Photography Exhibition

As you know, our international family loves travelling and visiting different places around the world. There are still so many places we want to visit and see. Although we can’t go there right now, luckily we can visit Lonely Planet’s pop-up photography exhibition this week, to celebrate the new edition of The Travel Book. 

We have the old version of The Travel Book and it is brilliant, little man loves learning about the countries in the world. I can only imagine how fantastic the new edition is as its content has been comprehensively updated, making it more inspiring, engaging and compelling.

From Tuesday 8th until Sunday 20th November, you can explore the world through an inspirational pop-up photography exhibition in which you can get a taste of the world a little closer to home. The exhibition features a collection of stunning photographs from around the world, all featured in The Travel Book, including the Malawi image above and the Sri Lanka image below.
