An incredibly well curated museum with rotating exhibits. Security will THOROUGHLY check your bag so try to have all the pockets/bags ready to present. The exhibit right now focuses on indigenous people and is well worth a visit. Also they have one of the best gift shops!

The atrium in the middle is such a great place to eat lunch. They have a cafe but I brought a lunch this time. The plants are maintained by the National Botanical Garden and are beautiful. There are permanent exhibits but also rotating ones, so it’s worth a repeat visit. A large gift shop with a nice selection. Everyone that works there is always kind and welcoming.

We went during the winter season, so many of the buildings were closed and aquatic features off. It was still spectacularly beautiful. There are spring flowers popping up all over the perfectly manicured gardens. Bring your walking shoes and a bottle of water so you can fully enjoy the large estate.
