There's so much to see here! The rainforest section actually felt like you were in a rainforest - the birds, butterflies, reptiles, and fish were quite impressive. The aquarium was also amazing with so many different species of fish and lots of interactive displays that kids loved to play with. The albino alligator was quite the sight - almost didn't look real. We also got to experience 2 earthquakes in an earthquake simulator which was really nat. We ran out of time to see the whole museum and missed the rocks/gems section but that looked amazing too.

Very good museum, entry was easy and the exhibits were very well presented and engaging. It was very busy with a strong family presence

I liked the rainforest. That was new to us. I also liked the option to see a movie in the planetarium. Loved the living roof. We live in Los Angeles county, therefore, it’s like a bit of several of our museums, planetarium and aquarium into one.
