Field Museum of Natural History
Listed under Museums in Chicago, United States.
A huge and hugely enjoyable collection of all things natural history - paleontology, geology, botany, anthropology. The collection now runs to some 20 million items, a portion of which are shown on the museum's nine acres of space. The dinosaurs, Egyptian tombs and Eskimo igloos that make natural history museums beloved of children worldwide are all present and correct.
