Traveler reviews
Paul Fisher
★★★★★2 weeks agoThere are so many things to see, a small percentage that you wonder what you are seeing, but the vast majority are quite fascinating. So many varied and extraordinary visual experiences. Worth spending plenty of time to examine the detail of the exhibits.

★★★★★a week agoReally cool. My kids are very happy. I also like it . Recommend to visit with or without kids, however I can tell children will definitely like this place. A staff took the photos for the visitors, she is very friendly and patience. I remember her name is Chelsey. I would like to say thanks to Chelsey from here. All staff are good. I would like to suggest to reduce the carrier bag price. £1 for a bag is quite high price I think. However, I recommend this place to visit.
