Visit the Miami Museum - Miami

Miami Florida has become renowned for its stunning beaches, gorgeous people and outstanding nightlife. What most won’t know though is that the city is also a cultural hub with various museums to visit. The Miami Museum of Science is a must see especially for families wanting to give their kids an extraordinary learning experience. The museum has several impressive exhibitions on display; these include The Dinosaurs of China, which have been billed as the finest Chinese fossils ever to be seen in the United States. The Cell Gallery takes guests on an intriguing tour of the biology of cells, while the Immersion Theatre transports visitors into the body of an infected astronaut through a highly-interactive game, where you have to use touch-screens in order to save your ‘colleague’s’ life. Another must-see attraction is the amazing Planetarium; for decades, it has been entertaining a wide variety of audiences about astronomy in its 65-foot diameter domed projection home with 231 seats. The Planetarium’s dynamic Space Transit Planetarium star projector can accurately replicate stars and planets seen anywhere from earth at anytime of the year, easily over-awing eager observers. With its incredible surround sound, lasers, video projection and multi-media imagery, the Planetarium guarantees many hours of enjoyment and learning.

The Miami Museum also has one incredible Wildlife Centre, dedicated largely to various birds of prey and the rehabilitation of these injured species. The museum has many special learning packages for scholars, families and teachers, designed specifically to meet a variety of needs. Scholars and families can embark on field trips, class visits, workshops, camps, and outreach programs, while teachers are welcome to utilise on-line educational resources. Whether you are looking for an educational outing or an alternate holiday option, the Miami Museum of Science promises not to disappoint.
