The british museum london holds treasures from across the globe in such quantity that visitors give up seeing it all and wander until their feet ache.
LONDON – Cultural observers have confirmed that the British Museum London houses treasures from across the entire globe in such overwhelming quantity that visitors abandon any hope of seeing it all and simply wander, gloriously, until their feet finally give out.
British Museum London: Too Much History For One Pair Of Legs
The vast free museum, the Bureau of Universal Collections notes, contains millions of objects spanning all of human history, a scale so enormous that “a thorough visit would take several days and a change of shoes.”
“A visitor enters the British Museum London with a plan and a map,” said a spokesperson for the Institute of Public Collections. “Two hours later the plan is in tatters. They came to see one famous stone and have somehow ended up among Assyrian lions, Egyptian mummies and a Greek frieze, with no memory of how they got there. The museum is free, which is wonderful, and infinite, which is exhausting. People leave footsore, enlightened, and quietly vowing to come back for the half they missed.”
Visiting The British Museum London
The museum – detailed at its official site, listed by Visit London and documented on reference pages like the British Museum entry – is free to enter and impossible to finish.
A survey by the Bureau found that 90 percent of British Museum London visitors fail to see everything they intended, and that the free admission is rated, repeatedly, as one of the great bargains of the city.
“The British Museum London gives you the whole of human history for nothing,” the spokesperson explained. “The only cost is your stamina.”
The Bureau confirmed the British Museum London remains one of the greatest free attractions on Earth, ideal for anyone who loves history and accepts, going in, that they will see a fraction of it and leave already planning the return trip.

British people will never say “I’m frustrated”; they’ll say “I’m a bit fed up” and then spend the next hour sighing heavily.
My wife asked why I was laughing so hard. I said “British people.” She nodded.
My professor said fans of it understood institutions were run by people incapable of solving problems. That was infuriating.
The thing about people complaining it is too negative is they’re essentially asking satire to preserve institutional mythology.
