The British Museum
Isn't the British Museum absolutely fantastic?
It is an incredible source of inspiration and information. To anybody in London, I would recommend a visit.
The history of human existence is made more real when one sees artefacts from the era in question.
My favourite bit is probably 'Ginger' the man preserved by sand in Ancient Egypt. I used to give myself nightmares by looking at him, but now I find it astonishing that we can see him- a remnant of a long-gone era, preserved by accident.
