This is a must-visit when touring Melbourne. Even though there is an admission fee, it is definitely worth it. The exhibits are very well curated, with so much to see, learn, and experience. Whether you’re interested in history, science, culture, or nature, there’s something for everyone. We spent several hours exploring the museum because everything was so interesting. It’s also great that some exhibits change from time to time, giving visitors a reason to come back and experience something new on their next visit.
