Natural History Museum

April 9, 2007 at 8:56 pm · Filed under Answer English Blog, Learning English, London Life · Posted by James

We sent Federico down to the Natural History museum, this is what he reports back:

A dinosaur is staring right at me. What can I do? Shall I run? Shall I hide? When a Tyrannosaurus Rex stares at you and roar you can feel the adrenaline! Perhaps you could try to imagine how it can be if that animal was true. Luckily, it’s only a robot.

The Science Museum is one of the three main museums in the Exhibition road near South Kensington station. This museum is home to life and earth science collections. There are five main collections: Botany, Entomology, Mineralogy, Palaeontology and Zoology. Its exhibition of dinosaur skeletons is located on the left as soon as you pass through the entrance. There is a lot of skeletons of many types of dinosaur, from the smallest one to the biggest, and also some movies that try to reconstruct dinosaur’s habitat. The dinosaur’s exhibition is very well done and i think you will enjoy the visit.

Continuing across the museum you can see fishes, reptiles and amphibians. There is also a very big hall containing a whole blue whale! Other zones are dedicated mainly to primate, birds and insects, and mineralogy. When you enter the red zone you will notice the big earth sphere located in the middle of the room and the escalator that passes through it. There is a room dedicated to volcanoes, explaining how they work and how they’ve influenced the history of the planet. A simulation of an earthquake is also there, and some other rooms that talk of the threat to the inner structure of the planet.If you want to visit, the Natural History museum is free and is open also on Sundays. You can find some other useful information on its website: Natural History museum. If you are looking for a course in London that combines English classes with visits to the points of cultural interest like the Natural History museum check out this English Course.
