The Natural History Museum is located in South Kensington, London. It is adjacent to the Science Museum, Victoria and Albert Museum. It is not far from Hyde Park and Kensington Park. It can go shopping in Harrods in 15 minutes'walk. So you can spend a whole day in this area. The Museum of Natural History resembles the Cathedral of the Middle Ages. It has a history of nearly 300 years. Like the Victorian and Albert Museums nearby, it is a Victorian-style building with beautiful appearance, exquisite carvings on exterior walls, windows and interior. It is amazing and eye-catching. The Museum of Natural History is the largest Museum of Natural History in Europe, with a total building area of more than 40,000 square meters. It contains more than 7 million specimens from around the world, from Darwin's evolutionary studies to Jurassic dinosaur fossils, as well as various animal and plant, geological specimens, among which 28 million are insect specimens. The Museum introduces the Victorian architecture of the museum as a cathedral, so it is also called "Natural Cathedral". The Museum of Natural History is also a popular card point for parent-child tours. It is free to open from 10 a.m. to 5.50 p.m. every day. During the summer vacation, there are many tourists, who can queue up from the main entrance and the side entrance respectively. Museum maps are purchased for 1 pound, catering and English explanations, so you can safely soak for a whole day. The Hall of the museum is magnificent, shocking and familiar. If you've seen "Paddington Bear", "Museum Wonderful Night 3" and other movie buddies, you'll remember this scene. The visual shock of the scene is difficult to describe in words. We must feel it personally.

    The level of the interpreter is average, but I am very familiar with the exhibition hall because I didn't finish the explanation for two hours and added 20 pounds of cash for an hour. Later, I felt that it was actually not cost-effective and there was no need to add money.

    One of the best museums in the world, really had an immersive experience with stunning and realistic visuals. Had a great time exploring and learning and the fact that entrance fee was free just made it even better!

    The Natural History Museum in London is a museum that exhibits a vast range of specimens from various segments of natural history. It is one of three major museums on Exhibition Road in South Kensington, the others being the Science Museum and the Victoria and Albert Museum. The Natural History Museum's main frontage, however, is on Cromwell Road.The museum is home to life and earth science specimens comprising some 80 million items within five main collections: botany, entomology, mineralogy, palaeontology and zoology. The museum is a centre of research specialising in taxonomy, identification and conservation. Given the age of the institution, many of the collections have great historical as well as scientific value, such as specimens collected by Charles Darwin. The museum is particularly famous for its exhibition of dinosaur skeletons and ornate architecture—sometimes dubbed a cathedral of nature—both exemplified by the large Diplodocus cast that dominated the vaulted central hall before it was replaced in 2017 with the skeleton of a blue whale hanging from the ceiling. The Natural History Museum Library contains an extensive collection of books, journals, manuscripts, and artwork linked to the work and research of the scientific departments; access to the library is by appointment only. The museum is recognised as the pre-eminent centre of natural history and research of related fields in the world.Nice and cool place although I’m not a museum person, but I did learnt alot on that day!
