The British Museum is a museum in London dedicated to human history and culture. Its permanent collection, numbering some 8 million works, is among the largest and most comprehensive in existence and originates from all continents, illustrating and documenting the story of human culture from its beginnings to the present.
British Museum is huge so I had to chose what I want to see my decision was Ancient Egypt because I am interested in Egyptian medicine ( especially mummies).

I love mosaics very much so put some of them . All they came from Ancient Greece. They were made in 5th century BC.
I will be in London in the autumn this and next year too , so I definitely come back here to see more.
It is amazing place and worth visiting.
I've been there and still remember the awe we felt when we saw the Rosetta Stone. I'm so glad you got to visit that incredible museum
ReplyDeleteI love museums. In all my visits to London, I've never gone to the British Museum. So much to see.
ReplyDeleteMitchell, so the next visit should include British Museum.
DeleteSo incredible! Glad that you will return later this year.
ReplyDeleteYou can join me.
DeleteOne thing about the British stealing things from all over the world, they have at least been preserved well.
ReplyDeleteThe weather looked nice.
Andrew, yes you are right British preserved stuff very well.
DeleteI was going to say that, too, Andrew. And also that they are generous in making them available for all to see free. This museum is just incredible.
ReplyDeleteCynthia, definitely it's true But up to the point because in my point of you each nation has right to preserve their heritage.
DeleteAlways good to see pictures of London.
ReplyDeleteI'm always fascinated by the Egyptian relics. We have them here, in Bristol too!
