The Science Museum
In Search Of Knowledge
It's a very decent museum for anyone interested in science. In fact, there are so many interactive installations, but there are also huge queues, by the way! It's free, for sure, reason enough not to complain, but I've been to other free museums in London that are far less crowded. They were long queues but it is free.No frills but a unique experience. I had access to the interactive spaces for free but they are well worth the time I spent queuing there to compensate.
There was a small children's playground and then again, an interactive one, where you could work with the machines. But I still had so many kids under my feet that I couldn't do it properly. It was a bit annoying that the parents let their children throw themselves on the stuff to try the equipment when there were other people waiting to go and do one. But it was still nothing really but they are very noisy.
There were less crowded areas that were nice but it was a pretty stressful day overall and everything was crowded. I went several times and the museum is always full which shows how popular it is. This is a place I would recommend for those who love science but to the crowds might take away the experience. Sadly, I found the shops and cafe a little too expensive for my budget
