Designed by Alfred Waterhouse, this building is now one of London’s most beautiful and most recognized. These holy halls now house more than 300 years’ worth of collections, with over 68 million specimens(标本). Broadly divided into Life and Earth galleries.
B. The British Museum is one of London’s top tourist attractions as well as being a major scholarly resource and Royal history. Its collection was given to the nation in 1753 and the Museum’s distinctive Greek revivalist structure was built during the 19th Century. The collection expanded massively during the hey-day（全盛期）of the British Empire. And if you haven’t got time for a proper visit, drop in for a coffee at the lovely Court Restaurant. Admission: free.
C. This magnificent Georgian edifice, found on the northern side of Trafalgar Square, houses a massive collection of Western European art.
