Petrie Museum of Egyptian Archeology in Camden

You're standing on Malet Place, a little street just off Gower Street, tucked between the buildings of University College London. This is where you'll find the Petrie Museum of Egyptian Archaeology. Don't expect a grand temple with columns. Look for the building next to the university's science library. The museum lives in a former stable. Yet that old stable holds one of the largest collections of Egyptian and Sudanese objects in the world, more than eighty thousand of them.
