At the interactive nature museum in Amsterdam, you'll delve into the complex relationships between humans, animals, plants and microbes that constitute a single ecosystem. By engaging all your senses – touch, smell, hearing and sight – you'll gain a profound understanding of our deep-rooted connection with the natural world.
The museum boasts an extensive collection of over a thousand exhibits, both large and small, encouraging you to discover the surprising parallels between yourself and other creatures and plant life. For example, have you ever considered how trees communicate with each other much like neighbours do? Or that infants move in ways reminiscent of crocodiles?
Embark on an enlightening journey through numerous interactive displays, enriched by art, sounds and fragrances. This immersive experience will enhance your understanding and appreciation of your bond with nature. The museum also provides a range of activities and lectures for you to engage in, including special events during the spring holiday season. One such exhibition is 'We, Aquatic Animals'. This temporary fantasy aquarium explores how water forms the basis of all life. From fish and worms to humans: every living being has its own connection to water. This shared origin demonstrates just how closely people and nature are intertwined, suggesting that humans may be more aquatic than what you initially thought.
