Natural History Museum

Created to celebrate the rich variety of life on earth the Natural History Museum is home to one of the largest collections of insects, animals, fossils, rocks, minerals and meteorites in the world. That's more than 67 million items in its collection in total, which include amongst them the skeleton and reconstruction of an extinct dodo, a life size Blue Whale model, and a giant anamatronic Tyrannosaurus rex. All this is housed in a magnificent neo-Gothic building (1881), decorated with hundreds of stone creatures.
