The largest museum of its kind in the country . Great for those who love bugs and young ones will find it especially captivating. There's a 4-D movie , a cafe to try bug cuisine, and a butterfly garden .
Step into the world of the creepy, crawly, and tiny. Explore a zoo of sorts for these interesting creatures, sample treats made with real insects, and don't miss out on the gorgeous butterfly garden .
Bees, mantids, watching a butterfly emerge from its chrysalis in a hatchery, fluttering beauties sipping nectar and learning about beneficial bugs versus pests... a buzzingly beautiful experience.
It's interesting but considering the size $22.95 per person is a bit over the top. The WWII Museum is only $26 to put things in context.
