Tickets: van tevoren reserveren of ter plaatse?

Zonder reservering mogelijkTickets ter plaatse zijn prima

Groot natuurhistorisch museum dat zelden uitverkoopt; op de dag zelf kopen is prima.

Over

Korte feiten: Over 6 miljoen exemplaren vullen de collectiezalen, van dinosaurusskeletten tot glinsterende edelstenen. De sterattractie van het museum, een replica van een 14 meter lang Diplodocus-skelet, verwelkomt bezoekers direct in de entreehal.

Hoogtepunten: Een zaal herbergt het skelet van "Big Bertha," een 40 ton zware Afrikaanse olifant die ooit in de dierentuin van Madrid leefde, naast een angstaanjagend compleet Megatherium-luiaardfossiel uit Argentinië. De walvisgalerij hangt een 20 meter lang vinvisskelet aan het plafond, zodat u direct onder het op een na grootste dier op aarde kunt lopen.

Insidertips

  • Head straight to the Biodiversity Hall on the top floor first, it's the most impressive and least crowded early in the day.
  • Touch the 100-kilo meteorite in the Minerals Hall, it's one of the few exhibits you're actually allowed to handle.
  • Skip the crowded ground floor T. rex area on weekends and save it for the last 30 minutes before closing.
  • Photography without flash is permitted everywhere, the whale skeleton hall has great lighting around 2:00 PM.
