Natural History Museum London

I will never forget the first time I went to the Natural History Museum in London it was breathtaking. My two boys were young so we did not get to see much of the place or the exhibits but this is one place along with the Victoria and Albert Museum that I want to go back and see. The building alone is amazing and thats without its contents. Here is a link with the history and lots of pictures.

how harry potter is that?

lovely building but i prefer the pointed arches rather than the rounded ones, its my only complaint though lol

that staircase is out of this world

It always reminds me of some sort of cathedral or very wealthy church in Greece.

its funny you should say that Mags as a show I was watching on the building of the museum said it was built as a cathedral to science. What I love about the building is the carvings everywhere you look there is a story.
