Tita Duty!!!
Ok! Together with my nephew and nieces, we went to National Museum of Natural History. This is the newly renovated museum in the City of Manila. We went there to see what is the buzz and we were surprised of what we witnessed inside.
Inside is like a wet market! The noise is all over and you will definitely cannot concentrate to what you are reading. It is annoyingly noisy! It seems that the youth went there just to take photo and talk non-stop with their friends.

Ok, to the museum. The architecture, specially the space where Lolong's replica rests is white and astonishing. The crisscrossing and elevator in the middle is a good idea. The direct sunlight brings natural light in and reflects nicely throughout the museum.
They have Lolong's skeletons hanging at one room. They have a video of the beauty of Philippine marine life. Most of the collection is taxidermy birds. The washroom is clean and well maintained.
Looking forward to see more at the museum on the next few years. For sure, it will be developed and be aligned with intenational museums!
