hi went recently, i must have been in there for about 4 hours, although the first hour was spent trying to pick jaw back up off the floor
some pics of my own unfortunately nowhere near as good as the ones above.. One of the worlds finest collections for sure.

hi mate, now i think about it there wasnt a single dha there that i remember seeing?
If you think the pics are good wait till you go in the flesh, i went in on a weekday morning and pretty much had the whole exhibit to myself. Went afterwards to the British museum which was just as awe inspiring. Next visit will be to the Victoria & Albert museum and the tower armourys.. |
