Wonderful exhibitions of dinosaurs and humans
We spent all of our time in two exhibitions, the dinosaur hall and the rooms for human evolution and human biology, though we did spend a few minutes in the crystals exhibit as well. The former two are very modern, very well thought out exhibitions, and I highly recommend devoting significant time to each! I doubt you have seen better exhibits anywhere on these topics. 4/5 stars because it asks "Rate your experience" which I interpret broadly: there were swarms of children (class excursions) everywhere, resulting in quite a lot of noise and difficulties in viewing some exhibits (couldn't get near them). But on balance a positive and memorable experience.

Great dinosaur app..fun time at the museum
My 9 and 12 yr old had fun doing the sauria tour...download the app on your phone and grab a map at the entrance. We'll do e except it can be hard to find what exhibits they are talking about (use the paper map for this). Took us a good 1-1.5 hours so kids werenot very interested in seeing the rest of the museum. We did walk through the body and evolution part and wish we would have spent longer. Great visit.
