★★★★★2 months agoSuch a lovely time! Me and my husband had a great visit. The cenography was impressive and gets you immersed in the experience. The quantity of species displayed is impressive. We went on a wednesday morning at opening time, so it was not crowded. I recommend it for families but also for adults as well.

★★★★★6 months agoA very big natural museum. Super fin for kids. There is not much info in English but the little interactive screens are in some languages. Parking: there isn’t a free space on street at least it was full on Sunday in the morning, there is a parking close it has two entrances choose the entrance from the picture because another is super narrow. Inside it is quite spacious.
