Royal Museum of the Armed Forces and Military History (solo trip)

But the tour starts relatively underwhelming then you gradually begin to feel the experience getting better and better in terms of display and ease of finding the information. The hall containing world war 1 is presented relatively well but the best halls are of the suits of armour and world war 2, the lighting and method of display are moder...
