British Library
Yet another modern British building proving Prince Charles right (that's scary) - modern architecture is awful. The library moved from the British Museum to this location in 2000, and fortunately you don't have to see the building to enjoy it's greatest feature - the Treasures Gallery. In that gallery all the greatest hits of British literature are on display - the Magna Carta, Shakespeare folios, a Guttenberg Bible, original hand-written Beatles lyrics, maps and many many more. No photography allowed in there though.
