LONDON: A VISIT TO THE BRITISH MUSEUM

I am a huge fan of London museums. The first reason is London has one of biggest collections of masterpiece in the world! The second one is all these treasures can be seen for FREE!

The British Museum is one of my favourite museums in London. Especially famous for its Egyptian Antiquity department, the British Museum has several "must see" departments. Among them are: Greek and Roman Antiquity, African, European, Islamic, Indian, Chinese, Japanese and Korean Departments...and far more.

A museum full of treasures...





Foster's glass-covered court is one of the great achievement of contemporary architecture in the UK.






...and in the centre of the Great Court, there is the impressive Reading Room. It used to be the British Library untill 1997. Among the famous readers who spent time in it are: Karl Marx, Lenin, Mahatma Gandhi, Oscar Wilde, Rudyard Kipling, George Orwell and H.G Wells
