London is renowned for its huge range of prestigious museums. With over 240 in the city alone, ranging from themes of traditional life to modern technology, there is guaranteed to attract an array of different people from all around the world. The first ever public museum in the world, The British Museum, was founded in 1753 and is the most visited museum in the United Kingdom.
