Memorable Museums

A5 #TRLT If you can buy tickets ahead, do. Reina Sofia Museum in Madrid where the Guernica mural is displayed is a good example of where you can dodge long lines doing this. I’d also go to the website to research & see if it’s what you want to see.
replying to @CaitlinKellyNYC @CaitlinKellyNYC @TheTravelCamel @RTWBarefoot Yeah, it’s great. Though it kind of has to be to compete with the rest of Museum Island (and the Kinemathek, my favourite museum in Berlin). #TRLT
replying to @LindaPeters64 @LindaPeters64 @postcardsplaces A5) Open your mind, try not to be judgemental about what is & what isn't exhibited since the majority of museums have limited space & usually have to rotate their exhibits. #TRLT

I learnt at the #COPE foundation museum #Laos that over 580K bombing missions which equates to one planeload every 8 minutes, 24 hours a day for 9 years
took place between 1964 and 1973 #trlt A4

Check what’s available online
(opening times; tickets in advance? timed tickets?)
Check if they’ve got any map: washrooms; best route to maximize what you see/experience; is there cafe for a sip and nosh
Take. Your. Time.
Stop. Look. Breathe.
replying to @kerrydexter @kerrydexter My husband was named after him! We had no idea there was s museum in Ireland. #trlt
#trlt A5: there's a lot of museums. Don't feel the need to go to them all - only go to those you feel you actively want to or which you feel are the most interesting. Even if the others are "must sees", don't worry about them if you know you'd only be going to tick it off.
replying to @Putopis @Putopis @GreatHallWinch The town of #Winchester is a lovely place to explore #trlt

replying to @LindaPeters64 @LindaPeters64 @postcardsplaces Research the Museum before the visit, so you can determine which specific section you'd be most interested in. Some Museums like the British Museum are huge and difficult to cover these in a day #TRLT

RT @ChinaMatt: History is usually first, then art. And through in the usual next, like the Electricity Museum in Lisbon. #trlt
replying to @findinganeish @findinganeish @TheTravelCamel @RTWBarefoot It was brutally hot when I was there, had to stand in line for ages so had no energy left for the others. Next time. #trlt
replying to @TheTravelCamel @TheTravelCamel @postcardsplaces A5. Look beyond traditional museums. There are exhibitions worth checking out everywhere. I really enjoyed this collection of political cartoons on the lakeside in Geneva. #TRLT

@postcardsplaces @TheTravelCamel Hi, M.
Yes.
I only had carry-on for an entire month. Did I want to risk bringing them back w/ stuffed overhead compartments? No.
Then again, shipping cost *more* than the total cost of the three globes. Meh, totally worth it 😅
#TRLT
A:5 Plan your visit ahead and mark down the areas you want to spend more time if it is a grand museum so you are not rushed #TRLT
Definitely one of the wackier, yet tastiest #museum I’ve ever been to! 🍦@MUSOFICECREAM popped up on #Chicago’s @TheMagMile. @ChooseChicago @enjoyillinois #TRLT #traveltuesday

replying to @RTWBarefoot @RTWBarefoot I was a little surprised by how much Auschwitz affected me. It wasn’t that the information was a surprise, but being immersed in the history of that place can feel oppressive and I found hard to shake off afterwards #trlt https://t.co/cZEtFt19r0
A5: to get the most out of museum experiences, check to see if they have free days or pay what you can, then utilize the saved dollars to purchase a souvenir in the gift shop.

replying to @findinganeish @findinganeish @TheTravelCamel @RTWBarefoot How are the refurbs. I spent a weekend there before they started the redevelopment. Captivated by the Nefertiti Bust at the Neues and the the Pergamon gates #trlt
replying to @postcardsplaces @postcardsplaces @TheTravelCamel Yeah, definitely. And sometimes they’re in venues that the public don’t usually get to visit. #TRLT
