Beautiful space, and the experience changes each time you go. Love the peaceful self-exploration aspect as well!

I went to the art gallery of Peterborough as requested in my CUST 1510 syllabus. I enjoyed the free entry.
My favourite art piece was the painting that resembles a frog who has been covered in paint jumping around on a canvas. I hope that this frog was not mistreated.
