Seodaemun Museum of Natural History 🇰🇷

#cherryblossom2024 The Seodaemun Museum of Natural History in Seoul, South Korea, made my spring vacation memorable! 🌿 Located in the vibrant Seodaemun-gu district, the entrance fee was budget-friendly, around 2,000 KRW per person. As I explored the museum's fascinating exhibits, I was impressed by its interactive displays showcasing the rich biodiversity of Korea and the world. From dinosaur fossils to intricate ecosystems, the museum provided an educational and entertaining experience for visitors of all ages. Afterward, I took a leisurely stroll through the nearby Seodaemun Independence Park, where I learned about Korea's struggle for independence and enjoyed the serene surroundings. Nearby attractions include the historic Seodaemun Prison History Hall, offering a glimpse into Korea's tumultuous past, and the lively Hongdae area, known for its vibrant nightlife and trendy cafes. The Seodaemun Museum of Natural History was a delightful adventure into the wonders of the natural world! #SeodaemunMuseum #NaturalHistory #Seoul 🦕🌳

National History Museum in Shanghai

The Shanghai Natural History Museum is a museum for natural history of our planet in the city of Shanghai. It is one of the largest museums of natural history in China. I learned that the museum has more than 25000 pieces, animals, skeletons, maps, historic documents, fossils etc. What is very interesting about it is, that it was founded 1958 already, so some parts of the museum are part of history again. The first floor is the most interesting, it has big scelettons of animals and bilingual infographics about the history of our world. The exhibitions on the other floor varies from time to time. 📍 Chinese name for navigation: 上海自然博物馆 #shinsider #shanghai #naturalhistory #chinatravel

the vibrant city of Hamburg

#createwithtrip The trio to Hamburg from Bonn in a nutshell was marvelous. it featured the celebration of summer party of Leibniz institute at the Zoological museum of Hamburg. The summer party included the lecture series from different delegates across all over the world. plethora of researchers from Professor to techinal staff of the museum showed up. The party included good, culinary food and drinks within the museum featuring animals. It was an absolute natural vibe to share an experience with animals and talk about them. later we visited the famous bar and restaurant city of Hamburg. In short, It was worth visiting recent trip of mine. #animals #museum #naturalhistory #wine #skyporn

Shanghai Natural History Museum

I absolutely love museums so when I finally got to visit the Natural History Museum, I was kind of excited! Entry to the museum is 30RMB and you purchase tickets through WeChat at the entrance. Once inside you can easily spend 2-3 hours just wandering. The museum exhibits are huge! The largest area is taken up by the animal models which ranges from dinosaurs to under water creatures. Some models are animatronic so be ready to hear the cry of an animal. There’s also a butterfly exhibit inside the main area, from the outside of this room you can see all of the colours and styles of different butterflies. History of animal life is below, just keep following the main route and you’ll see every part. The gift shop is pretty interesting, magnets and gems are available to buy as well as stuffed animal teddies. #urbanexplorer #history #animals #naturalhistory #shanghai #naturalwonders

The Fun Museum is like a replica of the Chongqing #naturalhistory museum, but with the inclusion of a game arcade. It's located inside the #chaotianmen Plaza on the first floor near to the KFC outlet. It's full name is Chongqing Natural History Museum Fun Museum, but it's important to know that it's not the actual museum that is found on 398 Jinhua Road, Beibei. This one is huge though, and makes you feel lucky to get a chance to experience dinner of the things at the actual museum. It has a variety of fun themes to see such as a Safari trail, a Noah's Ark boat with lots of stuffed toys to buy as gifts, and the Fun Zone, which hosts cool rides and games like VR and basketball 🏀. Rating: 5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐. It was a delight to stumble upon such an intriguing place.

Roar!!!

The natural history museum has lots of dinosaur fossil and specimen. The gemstone area is amazing too, there are gemstones that are over 500 carats, huge! #musem #naturalhistory

Beautiful Museum in Shanghai

I visited the Natural History Museum in Shanghai and it did not disappoint! My friends and I spent a day at the museum and loved taking the day to learn about all sorts of cool animal facts and history of the world. The displays here are very well done. I especially enjoyed the safari room which included a show that made the entire exhibit transition from day to night. They also had an arctic themed section which was quite fascinating. I highly recommend a visit here if you live in or are visiting Shanghai! :) #createwithtrip #travel #museum #staycation #summervacation #china #shanghai #explore #butterflies #naturalhistory

Day at the Museum

New York hosts many world class museums. Of course the Met is one of the most famous ones, but the American Museum of Natural history should not be overlooked. Located on the Upper West Side, the museum focuses on the natural history and organisms of the world. I personally really enjoyed this museum as it was very interesting and neat to find real life models of a whale and dinosaur skeletons. Its a very informative museum that really gives you a perspective of our place in the world. The rich biodiversity of the world and the many organisms that we share it with us also highlighted. It also highlights the many cultural artifacts we as humans have come to pass down. The museum is easily reachable by subway and is located on the other side of central park from the Met. Overall a very interesting museum that highlights our natural world and the need to preserve it. It's a very cool museum and has a very 'museum' feel to it, as in it feels very grand and old school, but in a good one. Again, the price is a bit high but definitely worth it it; you'll feel like a kid again! #travel #explore #museum #naturalhistory #nyc #usa
