based on 74895 reviewsA huge thank you to Teacher Kang Kang for his explanation, and thank you for my decision. 1. We were very lucky to arrive before the Spring Festival travel rush, and because I changed my travel dates, we ended up with a private tour for a family – what a bargain! 2. Teacher Kang Kang is a true teacher, very good with kids. His explanations are easy to understand, and the children were able to comprehend most of it. The little tasks kept it from getting boring. 3. I was also very moved at the end. Teacher Kang Kang shared his critique of the idea that Chinese people lack faith. He said that our faith in our family, country, and culture is the support parents give to their children, and the children's inheritance of that culture. Travel Tips: 1. The British Museum is physically demanding; 2.5 hours is sufficient. 2. Due to the time difference, definitely don't come on the first day, although she really wanted to come. Children tend to get sleepy in the latter half of the afternoon session, since it's the middle of the night in China. If you have enough time, you can visit part of it each day. 3. There are too many names of gods in ancient Greece and Rome for children to remember, but that's okay; memory is about repeated practice. It was really worth it; much better than wandering around aimlessly on your own.
The British Museum is one of the three greatest museums in the world. It features a rich collection of rare works. The museum was the first to display the Rosetta Stone in its Egyptian Hall. The stone stele is inscribed with a decree in three different languages, and was the invaluable key to understanding language and culture in ancient Egypt. In addition, there are more than 23,000 Chinese relics housed here, the likes of which are rare even in Beijing’s Forbidden City.

My long-awaited trip to the British Museum was a great experience. Of course, Teacher Chao's three-hour professional explanation could not cover all eight million artifacts, but she clearly explained the masterpieces such as the Parthenon, the mummies, and the Chinese collection. She emphasized that three parts of the experience is through observation and seven parts through explanation. After the explanation, my impression and understanding of these artifacts were much deeper. I look forward to coming back again.
A very meaningful and valuable museum trip. Important tip! Always hire a professional guide to visit museums; this will greatly enhance your experience. I was very happy to spend three hours learning a lot at the British Museum under Ms. Zhang's guidance. Five stars!
An in-depth visit to the British Museum is essential when going to London, and you should leave enough time for a whole day. The British Museum often has special exhibitions, such as the Late Qing Dynasty China Special Exhibition in 2023 and the Silk Road Special Exhibition in 2024. The main building of the British Museum is free to visit, but special exhibitions are generally charged separately, and the number of tickets is limited. It is recommended to book special exhibition tickets in advance through the museum's official website. If you buy a special exhibition ticket, you can enter the museum from the special exhibition entrance without queuing from the main building. The British Museum is very large, and it is unlikely to visit all the exhibition halls in one day, so it is recommended to make a strategy in advance, determine the tour route in advance, or ask a tour guide to take a tour and explain.
Sister Diana's explanation was wonderful, and the route she designed was clear and purposeful. Three hours passed unknowingly, and I still felt unsatisfied. I will recommend friends and colleagues to come here in the future👍👍👍 I also wish that everyone will be like what the British poet laureate Tennyson said in his poem: "and let thy feet millenniums hence be set in midst of knowledge." "May you stay here for a thousand years and wander in the temple of knowledge"
If you only go to a museum once in your life, it must be the British Museum, which has over 8 million collections, which is the sum of the Forbidden City, the Winter Palace, the Louvre and the Metropolitan Museum of New York. On the floor of the hall is engraved a poem by Tennyson: May you wander in this ocean of knowledge for a thousand years...
Free attractions, the exhibits are different from the Louvre's paintings and Greek sculptures. The British Museum's exhibits are mainly Egyptian mummies, which are a highlight. The number is amazing. It also exhibits from various countries. For example, the giants of Easter Island in Chile and the sculptures on Greek temples are impressive. There are not many exhibits in the Chinese Pavilion, but Tang Bohu's paintings impressed me. They are really beautiful. It is said that more good exhibits are not on display. If you are tired of visiting, you can buy hot dogs, hot chocolate and hot coffee at the entrance of the museum. Are there a few pigeons walking around at the entrance of the museum?
I came to the British Museum and learned a lot of knowledge and saw many treasures. Teacher Diana's explanation was vivid and passionate. She lectured for six hours a day and was very dedicated. It was said on the Internet that no Chinese could walk out of the British Museum with a smile. I think it might be because they were tired from walking.
