British Museum

A visit to this museum is a journey through time and across cultures. The magnificent building itself whispers stories of history. Inside, the collections are breathtaking in their scope and diversity. From ancient artifacts to exquisite artwork, there's something to captivate every visitor. It's an experience that will stay with you long after you leave.

This is probably my favourite museum in London and the 3rd time I've visited over the years. Booking online is a must as you can't turn up on the day without a ticket but they are free. There's a bit of a queue to get in when you get there but we were in within 10-15 minutes for an 11:30 entry on a Saturday. I think paid members are able to pretty much just turn up and walk in which is fare enough. The museum is huge and is always busy but due to the size of the place, you can walk around and read everything at your own leisure with exception to the Rosetta Stone which is always popular with a mass of people around it. I find the history that is in there fries my mind as to how far back some of the items go. I enjoyed the Egyptian and Persian areas the most. Architecturally, the building is stunning and is immaculate on the occasions I've visited. The library at the centre is wonderful and there is information on some of the more famous scholars they've had visiting over the years. The team of people working there are doing an excellent job in my opinion. Prices for food and drink are high but you have to remember that tickets are free so they have to make money somehow to preserve this treasure trove. I paid around £5 for a Cappuccino and I think £12 is their cheapest meal deal but ingredients seemed pretty good quality in the sandwich and I loved the coffee. Access from the London Underground is easy from either Tottenham Court Road or Holborn, both on the Central Line. We chose the latter and was a 5 minute walk which is also sign posted if you prefer not to use Google maps whilst walking.

Very impressive collection of items from around the world. I particularly liked the Egyptian & Greek exhibitions. The crowd at the entrance was very long but as I had already purchased a ticked online and had no bag or rucksack I approached one of the three security personnel present and they sent me straight into the museum, bypassing the queue.

It was great! Saw a lot of historical artifacts in display. Loved the Egyptian display of course. What was annoying was the audio guide. Both my iPhone and Android devices couldn't download. My phones are the top models but they said it's not compatible? Anyway we just had to read some of the description on the items but because there were too many people it took time. There were areas that were a warm so it felt a bit stifling. But it's good overall.

It is wonderful and unique. I really enjoy spending time in this museum. First of all, it's free and allows you to enter as many times as you want without worrying about ticket fees. Second, it is very rich and many works from all over the world can be seen there. Finally, the division of the museum is really regular. I recommend visiting the temporary exhibitions, which are not free.
