We took the train into the city and after a good walk and lunch at the Southbank Market headed to The British Museum. This museum was the first national public museum in the world (1753). It tells the story of cultural achievement throughout the world and is a unique resource for exploring identities and their connections.
It is a vast display and has always been free. Pretty amazing place.
Some of the most notable exhibits are the Parthenon Sculptures (The Elgin Marbles) and they are also the most controversial. New learning for me today!
Wandered past the Rugby Cup fan zone in Trafalgar Square also.
