World Museum Liverpool

Wonderful World Museum is situated in the city centre of Liverpool. The only museum that makes your imagination goes wild. Discovering treasures from around the world, meet live creatures and exploring the outer space. Some people say going to the museum is dead boring. No it’s not let me tell you our trip in the museum.

Before I start typing our trip to the museum let me tell you the good news. The good news is the museum offers free entry! Open 7 times a week from 10am to 5pm.

To start our visit we started at the ground floor of course where else. To get some activity trail, brochures and some fact sheets at the information desk. When we get in the museum we first meet two dinosaurs, one in the ground level in the museum, but when  I  look up the ceiling I can see a Pterosaur’s, a prehistoric flying reptile. Wow! That’s amazing. I wonder what’s inside. I can’t wait.

How was our visit?

I decided to take my husband and daughter to the world museum on my birthday. I think it’s unique to spend my birthday in the museum. I know my toddler is a massive fan of dinosaurs, animals, and insects. I am pretty sure she will enjoy our trip to the museum.

We really had a good day out. For me to rate the World Museum I’ll give 5 star for overall features. It’s world class museum. It’s state-of-the-art museum.  The way they display all the objects are mind-boggling. The whole museum is clean and child friendly. It’s a perfect place for the whole family and school children to spend a day out.

Fantastic day out with amazing discoveries!
