House-Museum of Sherlock Holmes in London - from the book in reality / reviews about tours and sights of London

Anonim

The world is hardly more than 30 museums dedicated to fictional characters, and Sherlock Holmes is the topmost of them. The address "Baker Street - 221 B" appeared in the book earlier than the corresponding part of the street was built, but the love of readers who wrote to this address, and the museum creators materialized it, it is officially registered. By the way, letters continue to write - with touching requests to help find a lost dog or return the confidence of a friend.

In a small four-story space, a hallway, turning into souvenir paradise, 2 rooms of Holmes (2nd floor), on the same Watson room and Mrs. Hudson (3rd floor) and on the 4th floor of several scenes from Holmes's high-profile affairs (wax figures ).

Story fans about Sherlock can spend hours, looking for signs, books, atlases, cards, weapons, sackes, fireplace, Baskerville dog head), Wizards quickly pay tribute to be placed in 30-40 minutes.

Lovers of historical reconstructions will find samples of the interiors of the income house of England of the 1800s. If you get dressed in a Victorian style, a creative photo session may turn out, sometimes with the participation of costume characters - MS. Hudson, Dr. Watson, policeman.

Children are always delighted, older people - only if visiting the museum is a gift of loved ones, because 15 pounds per ticket (10 - children) can stop. In the spring season, there may be a queue, so it's good to have several options - come in the morning (opening hours 9.30 - 18.00 all days except Christmas), go on the way to Madame Tussao Museum or from him, stroll through Baker Street (Pubs!), Or in the famous Ridgement Park feed ducks.

Those who do not like the queue and ticket for 15 pounds can capture the facade of the building and the Victorian interior of the souvenir shop, themselves in Holmes heads or in the Bobby society, and buy souvenirs in the shop near the subway.
