Natural History
The Natural History galleries are all situated on Level 1.
They tell New Zealands evolutionary story and describe our unique environment from mountain top to the ocean depths. Completing our Natural history story is Volcanoes, the highly interactive permanent gallery examining their scientific and human impact.
Level 1 also contains our children's hands-on gallery Weird & Wonderful, which is currently getting a makeover and will reopen at the end of November 2012. |
