The dinosaur exhibit alone is worth the visit to this museum. I loved how the exhibits were arranged as a story of evolution, with each small gallery emphasizing a shared feature that united the specimens in that gallery. All of the signage was very educational and centered around common questions that were easy to understand. What makes this collection so great is that they display the actual fossilized bones rather than just casts of the bones. Be sure that you go through the galleries in the right order, though; we initially started going backwards because that's where the elevator let us out. The super short orientation video at the start of the dinosaur gallery is worth it to explain the organization of the exhibits so you can appreciate them as they were meant to be seen. I also really appreciated that the signs for various displays admitted that there are still unanswered questions, or views that have changed across time; for example, there was a sign discussing how we don't know whether stegosaurus' front legs bowed out or were straight, and so they have mountings that reflect both options.
