The Whitechapel Gallery. It was opened as a public gallery in 1901 and has been going strong ever since.
Even though it still has a local focus, it is one of London’s most important cultural institutions.
The gallery has quite a few rooms over several floors and it uses them to show a variety of exhibitions.
What I love about it so much is that it encourages local artists and artists from disadvantaged backgrounds – but also has some big names on display sometimes.
Entry to the Whitechapel Gallery is free and it’s easy to spend an hour or so here.

Another one of the best things to do in Whitechapel has to be seeing (or visiting) the East London mosque. East London mosque is integral to the makeup of Whitechapel and is a reminder of how beautifully diverse this area is. Each day, you can hear the call to prayer and it’s something that is so beautiful to hear. I used to live close by and loved it.
Top tip: Check out their website to find particular open days where you can tour the mosque and learn more about its history within Whitechapel.

entertainment
Step back in time and experience one of the original Jack the Ripper Tours that happen most evenings in Whitechapel. Join forces with a Victorian police force and members of the Victorian London to try and solve one of the most infamous serial killer cases in London’s history. Though, if I’m honest, there’s a fat chance you’ll get any luck in catching the perpetrator now!
Top tip: Book online, as certain dates fill up fast, especially around weekends and holiday periods.

shopping
If it’s a vintage market you’re after, filled with; crafts, antiques and everything else under the sun, then pop over to Spitalfields Market. Now, yeah, I hear you… it’s not technically Whitechapel but it’s an easy walk and a great place to stop when you’re this side of London.
Take a wander around all the stalls, look for some goodies but don’t be surprised if you can’t find any bargains. It’s much more ‘fashionable’ than ‘flea’ market.
