I am a self confessed history geek, so the Imperial War Museum is my idea of heaven. Actual fact that if someone took me on a date there I would be very happy!!
Today I went with a friend to explore history.
We started at the top at the Ashcroft Gallery which is amazing as it's so interactive!
We went down to the next floor to the holocaust exhibition which is a beautiful and haunting experience.
The Imperial War museum has the coolest shop with retro gifts, perfect for your grandparents!!!
There is also a relatively new part called "War story" which is an inspiring look into the lives of our servicemen an women fighting at the moment. Alongside this there are beautiful portraits on the top floor taken by IWM photographers.
The newest exhibition "Family in war time" was closed to the public today, so we are already planning our trip back to the IWM to see this and "shaped by war" photographs.
There is so much more to see, that we haven't explored yet.
You don't have to be a history geek to enjoy this museum though, it truly is a great place to go with family and friends of all ages.
