The NMM or the National Maritime Museum is located in Greenwich in London. It is recognized as the prime museum in the UK and it could very well be the biggest museum of its genre across the globe. There are a few significant and ancient buildings that constitute certain parts of the museum and these also belong to the "Maritime Greenwich World Heritage Site". The "Royal Observatory" is one such place which belongs to the heritage site as well as the "Queen's House". The NMM is considered as a public place which receives its sponsorship from the Department of Culture, Media, and Sport. The museum does not charge visitors anything to gain entry to its premises although the majority of the museum's pieces which are temporary will have charges if you wish to see them. Starting from its earlier times, the city of Greenwich has always had its links to the world of course-plotting as well as the ocean. The city also served the purpose of being a port of sorts to the Romans.

The British Museum belongs to the 18th century. It all happened thanks to Sir Hans Sloane who lived from 1660 to 1753. He was a physician, naturalist and collector. His collection grew rapidly, and he wanted it to be preserved upon his death. The collection, which consisted of 71,000 objects, was bequeathed to King George II for an amount of £ 20,000. Along with the payment, the collection made history in Britain. An Act of parliament was tabled on June 7, 1753, to establish the British Museum.
