I think either London or Paris, although I am strongly leaning towards London, the most famous Museum of the city whatever its called. Ocassionally it loans it to other museums. Owing as to how Britain once ocupied both the fertile crescent, and the Arabian peninsula, the London Museum has many artifacts from that part of the Middle East, and they also have the cuneiform tablets containing the epic of Gilgamesh. If you want to see ancient Babylonian/Sumerian/Assyrian stuff, London is the place to go.
