Every year, thousands of people visit one of the world's most famous address:221B Baker Street, London. The address is famous for being where the fictional detective Sherlock Holmes lived in the well-known stories by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.
A lot of people are so taken wish the stories that they forget Sherlock Holmes wasn't a real person and therefore didn't ever actually live at the address. In fact, there was no house there when Conan Doyle wrote the stories. Despite that, the Sherlock Holmes Museum, which is actually at Number 239, is a fun place to visit if you are ever in London.
So, if Sherlock Holmes is a made-up character, why do so many people think of him as a real person?
It is often said that the character Sherlock Holmes was based on a real person named Benjamin Bell. a forensic surgeon(法医外科医生)for whom Conan Doyle worked as a clerk at the Edinburgh Royal Hospital. Sherlock Holmes' problem-solving ability and power of observation are based on the surgeon. Bell was called on by the police to join in several investigations, just as Sherlock Holmes did.
