Denver Museum of
Nature and Science
The Museum mainly focuses on 6
different areas of expertise such as Anthropology, Geology, Health
Science, Paleontology, Space science and Zoology. The Museum has
been accredited by the American Association of Museums. All the
exhibits have to do with the many wonderful things that nature has
given to us, but also the many things that nature can take away from
us. Along with the many different exhibits the museum has to offer,
they also have an IMAX theater showing different films every day of
the week rotating through out the year, as well as a planetarium
that also features shows great for the whole family. If you get
hungry stop by the T-Rex Cafe for a fresh hot meal or get a souvenir
before you go to remember the awesome experience you had at the
Denver Museum of Nature and Science.
