One of the largest museums in Europe, The Natural History Museum is Britain's national museum of natural history.

The doors first opened to the public in 1881, primarily exhibiting materials from the collection of Sir Hans Sloan.

Of course, since that time the museum has grown to include hundreds of exhibits displaying everything from dinosaurs to an interactive earthquake exhibit!  We suggest visiting the museum early in the day to avoid the queues.
