The next stage was a big tree surrounded by animals from Africa, i.e. elephant, giraffe, deer, etc. And by different species of antelope inside wall with their name and description displayed above the glass partition. "Ok, not bad", I thought.

When I enter the next room, my subconsciousness immediately open my satchel and take the mirrorless camera, ready to take photos of all of the mummified butterfly and insect. "Holy universe! This is awesome"

Each and every room after that can not stop my mind from feeling awe and orgasm. Best experience ever, worth every cent of it.

After you finish, you should ask to yourself "A deity made all of this just to amuse us?" I...
