Forget Easter egg hunts this weekend, head to the British Museum for a fun and historical treasure hunt at the British Museum. Hosted by THATMuse, who will also be hosting a simultaneous hunt at The Louvre, it will bring together different themes and cultures and invite you to track down and photograph historical objects throughout the museum. From Egyptian board games to a Mesopotamian Lion Hunt, these objects are far more interesting than an Easter egg.
About British Museum
If you wanted to thoroughly explore the British Museum, it would take months, if not years. Over seven millions objects from all over the world are housed in this impressive museum of human history and culture (many of the artefacts are stored underneath the museum due to lack of space).
