There is a proverb that it is better to see once than to hear a hundred times. That is why people need museums.
My favorite museum is State Darwin Museum. It shows natural diversity of our planet. Staffed animals are very realistic. One can familiarize with creatures of every continent, seas and oceans. There are both familiar animals like elephants, foxes or wolfs and beasts which lived on Earth long time ago.
The museum is well-equipped. It has a lot of interactive elements. For example one can hear singing of different birds pressing the buttons.
The most interesting for me is an exposition on human evolution. It shows how our ancient ancestors looked like and what tools they used.
I liked a tour very much. Our guide told us a lot of interesting facts about extinction and emergence of species.
I think everyone should visit State Darwin Museum at least once. It is the best place to learn about evolution. But I wouldn’t recommend to visit this museum on weekend, because there are so much people there, that you might not be able to come close to every exhibit.
