The Bank of England Museum is suitable for students learning about money and the economy. The museum traces the bank's history, which is intertwined with British history, of course, plus the different issued bills and coins in glass cases. There were schoolchildren huddled before the lift-the-gold-bar interactive display, so I couldn't hold the P12M gold bar in my hand.
Somehow I like the trip to Bangko Sentral more. Seeing how money is made is a "wow" moment. I don't really remember the Central Bank Museum, though Ambeth Ocampo required us to go there and to the gold collection of the Met.
