British Museum – London UK

British Museum Greek Mausoleum

My last visit to the British Museum was to see the Terracotta exhibition back in 2008 with my family. It was the second time I had seen a Chinese Terracotta exhibition in the UK, both were impressive. One day I must visit China to see the Terracotta Army and other Terracotta figures. However don’t just visit the museum to see a temporary exhibit, as there is an amazing amount of historic items on display.

British Museum SculptureI always seem to run out of time visiting the Museum. The Museum is in Central London, with the nearest tube (underground train station) being Holborn.
