British Museum- The best of the lot !!!

I was really eager to go to British museum and finally made it last month.
I really feel I should go more often! It is definitely worth visiting as it is packed with number of exhibits and artefacts. The museum is free to visit which is nice.
Also as it is centrally located I feel this is a vantage point with ease of conveyance.

I also believe the opening timings are very suitable for visit with everyday opening from 10 am to 5.30 pm with late opening every Thursday and Friday 10.30 pm.You can even pop in after your office hours.

There are few galleries which are open for limited time and also there are special exhibitions which charge money. I went for one such exhibition and really found it worth spending as it was very informative and interactive.

The layout is very large and you feel at home with the instructions clearly mentioned. I personally liked the Babylonian & Aztec exhibits.Do spend quality time in Egyptian gallery as they have wide range of texts,architectures,vessels,tools. I feel my history books getting refreshed with each displayed artefacts.Your kids are bound to enjoy there as there are plenty to see and learn. The themes and the galleries are really noteworthy as there is every effort to cover all kinds of collection. Do not forget the Rosetta Stone !!
No let downs when I talk about this excellent heritage although the cafes and food here are downhill as they are very expensive and also poor in quality.

So when are you planning your day out ?

Summary: Must go for one and all
