For many people who come to London it is a city of history and culture full of museums,
galleries and historic buildings. If you ever come to London, you will certainly go to the British
Museum. It is in Great Russel Street. The British Museum is a very large, light-grey building. It
is one of the most famous museums in the world and the biggest museum in London. There are a
lot of beautiful collections in it: drawings, collections of coins, paintings, sculptures and
ceramics [sI’ræmIks]. Many things came to the museum from Greece. There is a Manuscript
Room there, the room where the most important English documents are. You can also find very
old books and maps in the museum.
The British Museum is famous for its library, one of the richest in the world — there are
more than 6 million books in it. When you come to the museum, you can go to the Reading Room which is circular in shape.
Some of the greatest people of their times have sat in this Room — such as Dickens, Thackeray,
Bernard Shaw, Karl Marx, and many others.
