This year is zipping along at quite a speed, and London's already witnessed some great exhibitions. But big treats are still to come.
Van Gogh’s Sunflowers and Starry Night at Tate Britain
A major exhibition at Tate Britain, which examines how Van Gogh was inspired by British art, and how he in turn inspired British artists. His famous painting Sunflowers fills the gallery with joy, while a work of a red-haired man with piercing (锐利的) blue eyes stares out at visitors.
The EY Exhibition: Van Gogh and Britain at Tate Britain. Until 11 August, £22.
Glass Master at Kew Gardens
Dale Chihuly creates sculptures out of glass that we would normally think impossible. His bright colorful forms twist and expand as if they are living creatures. With 32 of his sculptures around Kew Gardens, we're looking forward to Kew becoming even more beautiful than it already is.
Chihuly at Kew: Reflections on Nature at Kew Gardens. 13 April-27 October, £13.75.
More of Moore at Museum of London
Henry Moore is best-known for his abstract figure sculptures, with a fantastic collection at the British Museum. What many won't know about is his obsession (痴迷) with armour (盔甲), and the sculptures he created inspired by Renaissance armour. Actually, they're going on display at Museum of London, next to the armour that inspired them.
Henry Moore: The Helmet Heads at Museum of London. Until 23 October, £11.
Shining a Light on Rembrandt at Dulwich Picture Gallery
Dulwich Picture Gallery commemorates 350 years since the death of Rembrandt with an exhibition on the man who mastered the use of light and dark in his paintings. The last Rembrandt exhibition in London was superb — more of the same, please.

8 . Great Activities for Nature Lovers
Hiking
One of the easiest and most accessible ways to get close to nature is by setting out on a good old fashioned hike. Hiking generally doesn’t require any fancy equipment or special skills, just a piece of map and a thirst for adventure. This activity can be as relaxing as you make it.
Backcountry Camping
Why limit yourself to just a day hike when you can have a full weekend (or longer) adventure? Backcountry camping involves packing your tent, sleeping gear, food, and water on your back to set up camp in a remote location. If you’re an experienced hiker and camper, this is an excellent way to test your survival skills and explore the wilderness.
Mountain and Road Biking
Unlike long hikes through the woods, biking allows you to cover more ground and travel farther in nature. Mountain biking typically involves riding up and down steep slopes, between trees, and over rocks. If this sounds too intense or your tires aren’t suited for rugged terrain, consider taking a road bike on paved trails through forest preserves or along country roads.
Gardening
Contrary to popular belief, you don’t have to travel beyond your own backyard to experience the beauty of nature every day. If your personality is less adventurous or your mobility restricted, consider planting a garden to grow your own vegetables, fruits, herbs, or flowers. There’s something truly satisfying about mixing up a salad with fresh ingredients you grew yourself. One of the best parts about spending time in nature is that it doesn’t have to break your budget and anyone can do it.

9 . Feb. 29, or Leap Day, arrives on your calendar once every four years—and 2020 is one of them.
