The British Museum

The British museum consisting of the National Museum of Archeology and Ethnography and the National Library is the largest and richest of its kind in the world. Built in the middle of the last century it is situated in central London which consists of quiet squares and streets.

The British Museum was founded by Act of Parliament in 1953 to bring together the collection of Sir Robert Cotton, some others and future addition to them.

Anthony Panizzi designed the famous circular Reading Room at the British Museum. The first thing that strikes a visitor on entering the Reading Room is its unusual shape. It is a perfect circle. The superintendent and his assistant sit in the centre of the room and they issue and collect books. Long rows of reading desks radiate to the outer walls, like the spokes of the wheel.

Many famous people have used the Reading Room at the British Museum. The British Museum has a department of ethnography. There are also

departments devoted to maps, coins and medals. Visitors can see a large collection of clocks and watches and postage stamps.
