Fascinating place. You can sit in and watch cases as long as there's space. There's no parking anywhere but (if you dare take it) there's plenty of public transport. Loads of restaurants, pub and really cool eateries close by and then there are all the theatres. Great place.

Other place that I wasn't expecting to sightseeing, but took my breath out. It is a monster architecture, if you don't expect to see that, it will shock you probably. At night it is more beautiful. I had the luck to observe this while snowing, for me an incredible day.

First ever visit interesting exhibitions, didn't know it was open to the public to view the court rooms for free. On a main road and easy to travel to was not that busy but the viewers for the exhibitions where still arriving when I leaving the building. Airport style security on the entrance to the building.

Although the RCJ have disable parking and the court staff are very helpful indeed , however if you are in any to the left of the main entrance it's very long walk from your car to whichever court you are attending and some of the floors are Not lever.So even through there is two other parking areas these RCJ are difficult for didable people to get around .Therefore l would suggest the RCJ need to consider their needs and accompanied the disable alot better,as my experience was extremely painful

Possibly the inspiration for Gormenghast, or for younger readers, it's tougher to find your way around if you're actually trying to do anything than for a muggle at Hogwarts. To get from room A to room Beta (there's around 1000) you need a directions list similar to Google maps for Eden to Gretna.
The building itself is a great metaphor for the grandiloquence of the law. If you are thinking of getting to grips with a legal issue a walk around here might prepare or dissuade you.

This is a gorgeous building which not many people have been in but which is free and open for people to visit during its opening hours, you can even go and quietly watch a court case if you're so inclined.

Staggeringly beautiful and imposing building with an almost tangible weighty presence. An essential part of legal London, it is situated on the junction of the Strand and Kingsway. Looks amazing at night.

Coming from a foreign country while being involved in the case in this honourable court, I would like to say just one thing: if you search for justice and righteousness, British Court is the right place to find it!
Big thank you to the judges of this court.

No I was not here for any Sentencing of any kind...it was a wedding reception...and yes that is still a Sentencing of a kind but it was not my own! Very very impressive wedding venue the boasts high ceilings and a blank canvas that the bride and groom could certainly make their own. Very excellent service from the catering staff - only wish I could have eaten more or taken a doggy bag. It's nice to see venues having a multi purpose

Commonly known as Law Courts, designed by George Edmund Street, it was built in 1870. It is a large Gothic building and was officially opened by Queen Victoria in December 1882. The public is usually open to the public and can participate in some trials freely. However, when special cases are opened, the public will be restricted from attending the hearings.
