Visiting 2 museums in Delhi

So, after close to 3.5 years, I was back on my bike expeditions, traveling from Gurgaon to Delhi on Sundays. This time, I chose to visit two national museums that were close by and I did not have too much problems locating them.


National Museum of Natural History (NMNH)

This museum is located at the corner of Tansen Marg if you go from Barakhamba Road in FICCI building.

It has four-floors where various types of models. You will be amazed to visit this place as it tells you right from the start how it all started. If you are interested in knowing how the earth came into existence and how the life was started on earth, this would be the place to be.organisms are displayed with

On the top floor (4th), you will be introduced to Indian culture and various facets that will help you appreciate the primitive knowledge of Indian people.

The museum is open from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM and there is no fee. The museum remains open on Sundays but is closed on Mondays.

National Science Center (NSC)

Further, I moved towards the National Science Center. It is located on the Bhairon Marg, near Gate No. 1 of Pragati Maidan. So, I just drove straight from Tansen Marg towards Pragati Maidan.

This museum has lots of galleries dedicated to various types of sciences. I would say it is one place you should go if you like science or anything related to it. It is very large and you won’t mind paying the ticket fee of INR 30/- for such a lovely treat of scientific facts.

It also has a cave and dark room where you get to know about dinosaurs. It also has a section dedicated to the Indian Freedom Struggle.

Overall, it is a very educational museum and you feel that all types of sciences that you have studied till now have been displayed here.

I would recommend this place to anybody who want to learn how scientific laws work practically.

I would say that school children who are visiting Delhi must visit these museums as they will have so much fun while learning so many valuable things about how the human history developed over the period of time.
