Brent is one of London’s most diverse boroughs. Its museum scene is modest, with just one museum proper – the Brent Museum, its local history offering.
Elsewhere, you’ll find the spectacular Neasden Temple (BAPS Shri Swaminarayan Mandir), which includes a small exhibition on Hinduism, though the intricately carved building itself is the real draw.
