Fan Museum

Exquisite fans owned by royalty, fans created by artists around the world, an introduction to the secret language of fans; just a few of the treats you'll find at the fan museum in Greenwich.  Tucked away in a quiet street and housed in a grand national trust historic house, it is really worth a visit.  Try and time your visit on a Tuesday or Sunday when you can have afternoon tea in the magnificent orangery.
