The first time I checked in to the Geological Museum, I thought it would be boring, but after I came in, I found that it was really unique. My daughter never tired of stamping various stamps, watching prehistoric animals with relish; I was deeply attracted by the corals, diamonds, and crystals in the Gem Museum. In short, it is a museum worth visiting, but I feel that it should be better if the baby is over 9 years old.

It’s very good. I took my children to visit. The children are a little young and are not particularly interested in this kind of museum. It’s true that it’s not easy to park. There is no place to park after two laps. I parked in a small courtyard on the west side. They are The place to eat, tell people to come back for dinner later, and then bring the children back to eat after the visit. The teppanyaki buffet is very good, and the children are free!
