The Houston Museum of Natural Science is a natural history museum. And let me tell you how much we LUV this museum!
Every time when we go on a Press Trip or just on vacation, we have seen many museums but this The Houston Museum of Natural Science is a natural history museum is by far one of the BEST ones we seen from around the world. The amount of artifacts, the collections were substantial and really blow your mind.
In particular, I am not really a gem stone person or rock lovers, but the collection here was unforgettable. Very dim in light on most of the displays, it allowed the rocks to shine. The collection was huge. Wow!
And the fossil collections? There were so many variety of fossils being displayed here were not available in other museums. They were nicely shown throughout the entire exhibitions.
The green house with tropical trees, plants, forests and man-made waterfalls, incredible.
The indigenous section was very educational and also to showcase and honor the individuals who sacrifice and paved the way for better lives for the new indigenous generation. Moreover, we got to see the contribution and the history of the native land and culture so we are being educated and learn to respect every community who lives on this planet.
In particular, I saw a display honoring Astronaut John Herrington, which I met him in-person for a film that was produced by Brand USA. He was an astronaut with indigenous descent and heritage.
During our visit, there as a special popup King Tut exhibition, wow! The display and setup was marvelous. We felt like we were at the King Tut’s Tomb.
It’s super educational for children and adults alike.
Houston First Tourism Board also got us tickets to check out the immersive IMAX experience of our universe. The commentator was very knowledgeable.
We really glad that we visited this magnificent place. Thank you Houston First for recommending and arranging this experience for our team. It was definitely worthwhile.
