    It was amazing! Every year i visit the museum and i never want to leave! It is massively interactive with free admission that you can just walk into with out booking. If you were going to the museum, it's at the back of the gift shop and i would recommend going after the last train when it is not busy. (it can get overcrowded in peak hours.)
