For years now I have been travelling around the world. What do I do when I get there? Look for Art.
Natural History Museum. The Blue whale exhibit. This exhibit was enormous. It featured a female blue whale called HOPE. It was exhibited as a symbol of humanity’s power to shape a sustainable future.
Date of experience: November 2017, reviewed on Tripadvisor :2 December 2017
Went to see “HOPE” the latest attraction of the Blue Whale. There are no words to describe the realisation one gets of the magnanimity the deep sea animal has. Its mere size is jaw dropping. The museum hosts interactive sessions, spaces for deeper study, pockets of memorabilia, cafes for wine and food and of course the venue is straight from a Harry Potter Book. Since it is so close to the V&A and the Science Museum, its totally worth spending the day exploring and enjoying both museums.
