Fascinating

Located right opposite the confluence this museum makes for an easy activity. For us it was time to grab a bite as well. So a visit to the museum and its cafe for a snack served perfectly well. The exhibits are impressive, covering diverse themes such as life and death, scientific exploration, cultural exchange, and even love. It features a vast collection, including paleontology, zoology, and ethnography artifacts. These varied themes provide deep insights into human knowledge and experience. I felt the temporary exhibitions also add to the museum's appeal, with current displays on topics like epidemics and even the topic of love. The museum's architecture and design are also spectacular, a unique blend of lines and curves creates a modern space for these exhibits. It would be a great addition tonyour itinerary. #myhiddengems #museum #summerdestinations #france #100waysoftravel
