This is possibly the best of the new museums that have sprung up in Jhb in the recent past. It is visually stunning, and the interactive opportunities are clever and interesting. I couldnot get my son away from the hologram of the dam on the ground, in which the projected images of animals react to where you step. And the stuffed Eland is tragic and beautiful! Everyone should see this museum.
