London Day 9: Museum of London

After exploring Borough Market, we still have a few hours for the day. So, we decided to explore another museum.

Museum of London showcases the account of London life from prehistoric times to the present day. Some of the exhibits I remembered were the plague, the great fire and modern London. No photography is allowed inside the museum.

The Lomo Wall; 65 meter in length is made up by almost 30,000 photographs of the London Olympic. More than 15,000 people from 32 countries submitted analogue pictures for this wall.

We were simply too tired to pay much attention at the exhibits. We ended up in the cafeteria and ordered some tea and sat down to rest our tired feet.
