Museum of LondonNewest Review: ... how they survive and provide an oasis of calm, right there in the middle of London. Museum of London is easy to roam around, lots of information readily to hand and quite honestly you spend hours there and need to go around again to take it all in.

I must admit I do enjoy visiting museums and as I was on holiday with a few days spare before Christmas – I decided to get along to the Museum of London – something I had been promising myself for the last nine months or so.
