Museum of London


This museum gave a great overview of the history of London. We were a bit fatigued from walking up and down a million stairs and seemed to resort to all the videos playing through out the museum. Short documentaries accompanied the exhibits outlining events such as: The Black Plague, The Fire of London, All World Wars etc. This museum was very modern in comparison to all the others we have visited so far. It is nice to gain a better understanding of the history of the great city we get the opportunity to live in for a few months. One of the quotes from the museum referring to the city of London that I really liked was:
“London’s lure was irresistible. People were drawn to the capitol for its wealth, excitement and life-changing opportunities.”
