Museum | The Natural History Museum of The Hague 🐋

🌿Upon entering, you're greeted by a skeleton model of a sperm whale that's dozens of meters long, with plastic suspended inside. While the Naturalis Biodiversity Center in Leiden makes one ponder "life and death," the Natural History Museum in The Hague prompts thoughts of "harmony." 🌿The museum consists of two buildings: a dome for screenings and the main building for exhibitions. 🌿"That evening, his team were listening to the Beatles song 'Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds,' and someone said, 'Let's call her Lucy.' And so it was that Lucy became a worldwide celebrity after lying in the ground for over three million years." An exhibit featuring a human skeleton named Lucy feels oddly romantic. 🌿The Kunstmuseum Den Haag often hosts exhibitions, but one of its most precious exhibits is the museum building itself. With its unique brick walls, staggered interior spaces, use of natural light, and modern color schemes, it's well worth a visit and is hailed as one of "Europe's most modern buildings." 🌿Admission: Free with a museum card #Netherlands #TheHagueMuseum #Museum #NaturalScience
