This modern museum, which is the home for thousands of creatures, including sea animals, was designed by the architect Renzo Piano who since the beginning had many challenges. People who worked with Renzo didn't understand his drawings and the ideas he had. He wanted to build a bat flying as the roof and including this, there are more details he wanted in the museum.
His design was simple and fancy but for the workers… The more they look, the less they understand. It was very complicated as a sketch. The museum is covered with flowers and plants, openings in the front will let air flow into the museum. Including the planetarium and rainforest, the museum is 21 meters tall and without them, it would be 12 meters high.
Visiting the museum is not a difficult task, the tickets cost between 31 to 40 dollars. Children between 3 to 17 years only have to pay $31,38, seniors who are more than 65 years and students who are more than 18, only pay $34,89 and adults 18 to 64 pays $39,95. There is not a limit of time; however, according to some people, the average time inside, while exploring the museum is for three hours.
This museum is beautiful, cool, and its design is amazing. Is a green place full of animals, definitely the perfect place for those who love nature. Is a place you should visit at least once in your lifetime accompanied by someone you want to experience this, or if you prefer, do it alone.
