They have a timed entry, and this is actually good because you go from one room/section to another in small groups. They have lockers that you can use to leave your stuff. There's visuals in each room, and you listen to commentary in your language through the headphones that are provided with each ticket, this was very convenient. Rooms have visual components, moving things, some videos with 3d glasses (provided), some moving chairs (just a bit, you won't be scared), certain smells (not too much). There's little spaces, and it is very dark in the first part of it so if you're claustrophobic, keep it in mind. However, there's personnel on almost every stage and emergency exits, so if you have a problem, you can ask them and be helped. Photos and videos are not allowed but that's fine. The logic of how you go through the body sections was odd (non existent?) but it was still interesting. I would appreciate the possibility to get a bit deeper information on each topic/organ but considering that the museum is also for the children, maybe that's why the focus of the audio guide was as it was. The first part lasted about an hour. Then you get into the interactive part, it's light, bathrooms everywhere, one or two cafes with the possibility to get a bite or a drink (food and drinks are not allowed). Most of the things in the interactive section are available in English as well but some are only in Dutch, which was a shame since it took away from the experience. In general, it was a nice experience, I learnt a thing or two but considering how it's tailored for kids and there's no deeper more interesting facts that would be also useful for adults, it was a bit too expensive for what I'd expected. I would recommend this museum for families with...
Read moreI am surprised to read how educative Corups is. It is not either for people how know a lot about the human body, or for people who do know anything. It is because the knowledge is presended fragmentory. To give an example: if you listen to the story about the orygin of human, you get a nice presentation about fertilization, you go to the uterus and... there is no scheme of a women where actually this uterus is and why is the featus coming to the uterus: what for? I would expect to see a drowing of women indicating ''uterus is localized here in the belly of the mother; it is a house in which baby can grow, get get food, oxygen, in which it can move, turn and even pee''. In Corpus, the baby is called featus, but a child of 8 has no idea what featus is. And this is not explained. Similarly with breathing: where are these lungs? we were taken immidiately inside of the lungs. Or to the kidneys. Why not show just a simple scheme of human body to point it out, where are these organs localized. Actually 90% of the story goes about the red blood cell which bring the oxygen all over the body.... The idea is perfect, travel through the body with a lift was nice but...
Read moreYou know.. I'm shocked. This place will surprise both children and adults. So interesting, informative and incredibly cool. Know your body within the body. A complete feeling that you are a molecule that moves through the capillaries, and all organs. Breathing, heartbeat, smells and much more you can feel every organ of your body from the inside of it. Thanks to the video, audio 5d, and much more, the feeling of being completely indulged inside. Prices 24 euros entrance and children and adults at the same price, parking 7.5 euros. There is an audio guide, it's a pity that there is no Ukrainian language, but I understand that the project was created a long time ago, so for now only Russian and many others. I really hope that in the near future there will be an audio guide in Ukrainian, if you need help with this, I can translate it for you. There are no photos inside, they are prohibited, but to be honest, that's right, you don't need to take pictures, you need to go to this wonderful museum and experience everything yourself. Enjoy. ...
