The British Museum is a treasure trove of human history and culture — and the best part? It’s completely free to enter! Located in the Bloomsbury area, this world-famous museum is home to over 8 million artefacts from every corner of the globe, spanning over two million years of history.

One of the first things you’ll notice is the breathtaking Great Court, Europe’s largest covered public square, with its iconic glass roof. Be sure to start your visit here — it’s the perfect photo spot!

Inside, don’t miss the Rosetta Stone, a key that unlocked the ancient Egyptian language. The Egyptian mummies, Greek Elgin Marbles, and Assyrian lion hunt reliefs are among the top highlights. You can easily spend hours wandering through galleries dedicated to ancient Rome, Asia, Africa, and the Americas.

Tips:

Admission is free, but advanced online booking is recommended during peak times.

Take a free 30-minute gallery highlight tour or pick up a museum map to plan your route.

Lockers are available for backpacks and coats.


Getting there: The nearest stations are Tottenham Court Road and Holborn, both just a 5–10 minute walk away.

Whether you’re a history buff or just curious about global cultures, the British Museum offers an inspiring and educational journey without spending a penny. Ideal for solo travellers, families, or anyone on a cultural quest in London.
