Sir John Soane's Museum

There are various handicrafts from all over the world. There are Hogas paintings, Greek sculptures, all you can think of, here. Everything is in this wonderful architectural masterpiece. The staff are friendly and welcoming and willing to share their knowledge.

Located in a beautiful square with public gardens, the Sir John Thorne Museum has a guided tour of the subject of the PhD’s research and many other elements of Egyptology, and is no more than a 5-minute walk from the Central Line’s Holbourne Metro Station.

The basement tour of the Sir John Thorne Museum is like a journey through the future, with extraordinary use of light. Upstairs is more like a traditional gallery containing stone carvings from around the world, including the Egyptian king's sarcophagus, set up as it was 200 years ago.

an incredible museum full of incredible pieces - the building itself is a piece of art

Great architecture, unfortunately quite a few places are not open to the public. You go back to the eighteenth century England to see the beautifully furnished kitchen and Egyptian coffins, or climb upstairs to see a small but reminiscent collection of Hobart paintings. If you are in the area, it is worth a visit.
