We were lucky to catch the whale exhibition during our visit. We saw whale skeletons and watched various documentaries. We could even hear whale sounds that had been amplified to frequencies audible to humans - calls expressing different emotions, which was really moving!
We also saw live giant stick insects here, and I even got to hold one and interact with it for a while. The staff were incredibly nice!
