The museum also has a range of prints and drawings from Botticelli to Bonnard. In the later part of 2000 the museum underwent various significant changes. A whole new wing has been added, with many more exhibits and with the museum still being free of charge millions of people come and marvel.

Great place to think
You know when you need a bit of time to think and bit of space to let your brain roam freely around without being distracted too much or constrained by your surroundings? The atrium at the British Museum is perfect for that. The tessellated glass ceiling designed by Norman Foster creates this incredible uplifting feel and sense of space. If you're looking for some creative inspiration this one is one of the best spots in London. Try to go there early or late to avoid all the tourists and kids running around it can be difficult as this is one the most popular tourist attractions.
Ah, you can also look at some old mummies and stolen Greek marbles if you feel like it and of course buy something to remember the whole thing.
