back in London with 2 days, when i remember that at the Acropolis they said that if i wanted to see most of the friezes form the Pantheon they were at the British museum, that's a 10 minute walk from the hostel that i am at. It s large museum and also free. So spent 4 hours looking around there. the friezes you can actually photograph and they're in reasonable condition. commonly called then Elgin marbles. for the Duke of Elgin rescued them in 1806
Their current new display is on Iran. there is also a wonderful display on just about any other era you care to name. No i didn't get to see it all, maybe a 1/3 if i was lucky. i just looked at a ll the roman/ Greek stuff and a small amount of the middle ages.
I didn't buy anything today OMG.
