Tips for the Visitors
In order to enjoy the visit you’ll probably need more or less three hours, so don’t take into account the fact that 90 minutes before closing you still have a chance to enter the exhibition. 90 minutes won’t be enough to have a close look at the most interesting exponents here.
During the exhibition ”The Journey” you’ll probably sweat in Cameroon if you are ready only to withstand the chilly temperature of Alaska, so the layered clothing is the best option to match the climate changes. Sensible shoes are also recommended to cross African rope bridges for example. Wearing high heels is definitely a no-go.
And finally, taking photos is not forbidden at the exhibition, only be sure you don’t use a stand for the camera or a flash, which may bother other visitors.
