British Museum
Undoubtedly the best known of London major museums, the British Museum's slogan is Illuminating World Cultures. The range of exhibits is vast, both in the period of history covered from Pre-Historic times to the modern day and in terms of the Geography and Cultures covered from the U.K. to Egypt and across every Continent of the world in fascinating depth.
The British Museum is best known for its exhibits of aspects of the ancient cultures of Egypt, Greece, the Roman Empire and the current special exhibition concentrating on Japan as well, of course, for its huge Reading Room. The Museum is located in Great Russell Street, in Bloomsbury, and lies between the end of Oxford Street and Russell Square. Opening hours are normally 10.00am to 5.30p.m. but the Museum stays open later to 8.30pm on Thursday and Friday.
Only a part of the Museum, the Great Court, is open on Sunday. The closest tube station is Tottenham Court Road. Admission to the British Museum is free.
