National Museum Of Natural History

The National Museum of Natural History is an immersive tourist attraction in Washington D.C. Commenced in 1910, this place is now home to millions of specimens, photographs, and artefacts. This green dome museum presents you with a collection of fossils, plants, artwork, and tools. You can also learn about the 30 million insects enclosed in glass boxes. There are dinosaur remnants that roamed the barren lands of America. This museum is also the house of Hope Diamond, one of the beloved jewels of the world.

If you are a history buff and a curious soul then this museum is for you. It hosts various exhibitions related to butterflies, African bush elephants, Barro Colorado Island, and bones. A special session of “Cellphone: Unseen Connections” is also conducted to give you a glimpse of the technological power. Book your tickets for the desired exhibitions in advance as the shows are mostly at capacity here.
