Hunter Museum, just at the University of Glasgow, don't miss it. This museum displays the items William Hunter has collected throughout his life. First, the owner William Hunter is a famous Scottish obstetrician. Almost all celebrities at the time asked him to deliver. He was also a collector. His interests involved various fields. After his death, all the items he collected were donated to the city of Glasgow in accordance with his will. He also gave his own cash of 8,000 pounds, now £80,000, in his will to build a museum to display these items! This is the origin of the Hunter Museum. We all know that the Roman forces expanded to Grassburg. The Romans built a wall in the display location in Figure 8, which separated the Scots and Romans. Figure 9 was the cornerstone of the wall at that time. Hunter's private collection of coins is the world's second only to the French Kings! The teeth of the extinct giant tree fin donated by Charles Darwin are also among them.

After entering, you will find a simple and elegant white living room, silver foil windows, long back chairs and other fresh and refined decorations. Hunterian Museum It's inside the University of Glasgow. It's a college alumnus Hunterian's life collection of various things. Hunterian was a prodigy when he was a child, and of course he was a wizard when he grew up. I really can't believe that these things were collected by him alone. From medical organ specimens to fossils to coins. Astronomical geography, everything.
As a student at Glasgow University, he took time to go to the Hunter Museum on the lower campus, where Hunter was a famous doctor, so his collection was mostly anatomy books, specimens, fossils. What impressed me most was one of the real mummies, well preserved, and X-ray maps next to it, which is very rare and magical. Suitable for people interested in debunking or studying medical biology, you can visit it when you have time~
This museum is very good, the collection is rich, it is worth visiting.
