When I was in this museum by my little friend Amway, I didn’t care at first. I felt that the museum on campus was difficult to create too high a surprise.

I couldn’t stop at all. , All kinds of exotic exhibits, Boston's favorite museum list also has a place at the Harvard Museum of Natural History. The museum was founded in 1998 by three different themes of botanical specimens, comparative zoology and mineral geology. The earliest botanical specimen museum was established, and at the beginning of the museum, more than 200,000 botanical specimens donated by Harvard professor Asa Gray were established. The Mineral and Geological Museum was donated in 1977, and the last was the Comparative Zoological Museum, which was built in 1859.
