Everything that happened here in London, from the prehistoric times, Roman era and so it´s been collected and it´s now exposed here.
My favorites:
* I got obsessed with Roman and medieval combs. Made by carving the wood, were really precious goods. So I took a lot of pictures of them.
* Fuddling Cup, 17th-century. Designed to confuse the drinker so it would have been impossible to take a drink without getting wet.
* Pleasure Gardens: they were on the edge of the city and privately run. For a small fee, visitors entered a beatiful garden with food and drinks served. An Orchestra played, and they finished with a firework display.
This rooms has dresses, and they play a short movie about one of these parties, it looksas if you were in one of those gardens.
* Victorian Walk: the museum displays objects and shopfronts from the Victorian London (a Toy Store, A barbers shop, A bakery, etc).
* Museum tour: a loved the story about the Great 1666 Fire in London.
