BODY WORLDS / Amsterdam EXPO Review

Great stuff a little creepy really fabulous how the body's are preserved hard to believe they are real . But they are just amazing

Very informative and clear! True, in some places it is too impressive, I do not recommend going to a full stomach

Fun and educational great combination for an outing with children

Unusual and highly informative. Well worth spending a couple of hours doing.

Such a beautiful and educational exhibition. Well worth going to.

Interesting and educational - you can find your way around immediately. We could offer the ticket price when buying online and thus paid less.
The exhibition is clear and does not get an oppressive touch when it comes to joy. Also suitable for children.

Super interesting and rewarding experience.
In addition, medical student, it was also a good way to "revise" my basics x)
Besides the "medical / scientific" side, the "psychological / mental" side was really interesting.
I loved this museum. An experience that I strongly recommend.
PS: count at least 2h-2h30 if you want to take full advantage of the museum (reading boards, videos, etc.)

Great expo, very different from your usual museum. A bit expensive but worth a visit

Was a bit small. And you felt a bit rushed by the other visitors who came after you.

Informative and full of curiosities. Well worth the price

Very interesting exhibition of human bodies perhaps a little expensive for what it is.

Beautiful surprising collection of real-life parts of real people brought in an enlightening way.

Great place to visit and very interesting.
Regrettably, it can start to feel a little repeated. But well worth the 17
Get your ticket from a tourist kiosk for 17 or pay 23 on the door. Considering the tourist kiosk is a few meters dow the road it a no brainer.

A very interesting museum! It turns all about how to be happy and spread hapiness

Really Interesting lots of amazing facts and quotes

Very interesting motto is happiness when you are moving.

What an experience. Makes you appreciate humans and understand the body. It's not morbid nor a place sick twisted people go. It's very educational and certainly a must. Wish more places would do things like this. Well done and I hope to return in the near future as a tourist not a donation!

Don't leave Amsterdam without a visit here. At first I thought it would be a little macabre but I learnt so much. Definitely worth a re visit next time.

Different body parts / organs on display with briefs about them. Good knowledge especially for those who have not studied biology to know their bodies and is systems.

Really great displays and a place for learning about human anatomy :)

Very interesting place! Well layed out and Informative. We went after 4pm, so can get extra discount on the ticket price.

This was an Amazing experience if you get the chance to go you need to. Be open minded you are seeing real human bodies but what a great way to show kids how everything looks under the skin

This way you will appreciate your body again and you will be made aware of how it is put together and how you must maintain it

Interesting to see the body inside. Also handy with the Dutch and English translations for all subjects.

Over a number of floors not to far from the red light district no I do believe it moves from city to City and may no longer be there.
A peculiar and kind of creepy set of figures all originally human but now plasticised.
Multiple display cases showing internal organs, body parts and other fascinating pieces to do with anatomy.

Not for the faint stomached I feel but definitely worth a visit if in town.
Would love to see the animal one next.

Too busy, the information is limited and fairly overpriced

Great exhibit with a lot of interesting stuff about the physiology of happiness

It is worth a visit during your stay in Amsterdam. The ticket is not the cheapest (around 20 euros per person) but in my opinion it's worth it. Captions are written only in English but easy to understand.

Highly recommended. I suggest taking the guide (headphones).

Oh man, this place had such a positive message with cool representation! It taught real facts and tries to inspire healthy behavior! Such a cool place!

Interesting exhibition. The anatomical models are made from real corpses based on the plastination preservation techniques invented by German pathologist Von Hagens. Von Hagens set up the Body Worlds exhibitions in several cities. The exhibition is done well and gives a good overview of the functioning of the organs, the blood circulatory system and the nervous system. However, I ll never leave my body to science!

Worth the visit if you have not been before, not as good as the London exhibition.
Very educational.

Interesting and educational beyond expectations, together with our granddaughter, we have been there for a few hours.

Very interesting stuff, not gruesome at all. Maybe you'll see me there one day?

If you are interested in the human body it is a great place to go, I went in under slight duress because my girlfriend wanted to see it. For me it doesn't have to be that interesting, but sometimes a bit over the top.

Fascinating and educational. I had a fantastic time learning about the human body. It's priced reasonably and takes about 2 hours to walk around if you want to read everything and listen to the audio tour.

Very interesting and educational. Friendly employees. I recommend it

It was really something different.
I would reccomend to anyone te see the museum.

A huge and very interesting show about the human body, for about 20 euros. Each floor, 6 in total, is dedicated to a specific "section" of the human body: bones, muscles, circulatory system, etc.

I've been to body worlds before with my class mates and now with a friend. It still is fascinating!

Very cool to see what our body really looks like inside. Very clever and very educational.

Absolutely fascinating, well worth the entrance fee.

Nice attraction. Was not that big but it is amusing and interesting. If you are carrying backpack get ready to pay 2 euros for a locker.

It is worth the price! Interesting and informative and vivid

Experience that changed my life. If you want to change the way you see the nature of the human being, you should definitely visit bodyworlds.

Wish I'd come to this place before Ripley's believe it or not. Because I only got a little time to spend here.
Nice human anatomy. Knowledgeable, not just for medico students but also for everyone, anyone. For a gymholic like me, it was an amazing experience (whatever time I spent there) knowing and learning the amazing way our body functions and muscles work. You'll get group activity inside here. Avg time spent here will be around 1-2 hours.

Very interesting! Takes approx. 1.5 - 2 hours to really get to see everything but is definitely worth the money (online 19, onsite 22.5) and the time.

Amazing to see how real body parts looks like, very informative.

Been to the Body Worlds exhibition in Rotterdam a few years back and I can't help but compare this to my previous Body Worlds experience. Small, cramped in a few floors.

After a friendly welcome by the host (Arjen), I watched the exhibition. Very interesting and very nice to be able to view everything in this way. Despite the holiday it was not too busy. Highly recommended (And not scary )

If you are interested in the body, then it is very interesting. My 12 year old son really enjoyed it.

Can't not recommend this place enough truely amazing and a great insight to human anatomy.

Great place to learn about the human body, not for a sqeemish!

A lot of visitors, maybe too much. But really instructive exhibition

Worth every penny, just a shame we were on a time limit, I could have spent much longer! Fantastic exhibition, tastefully presented, ideal for those curious about the inner workings of the human body. I hope to visit again with my children who I know will enjoy it just as much as I did.

The exhibition is well cared for and very interesting for enthusiasts and not for anatomy. Bello the path of reflection that is brought to do through the "happiness project"

Great and fantastic place, to learn and make reflection about the happiness and the life.

Not for the faint-hearted, but it is amazing and highly recommend. A deep insight into the human anatomy.

A bit overpriced, but an interesting stop! Really cool to see if you actually stop and spend the time to read about it all and enjoy the delicate nature of what has been done.

Sometimes you do not realize what things do to your body, because of this exhibition some facts come hard. What makes this exhibition so interesting! You learn so much about your own body, it is so special to see what it looks like. It is a very special, inquisitive exhibition. I will definitely go back again!

Very nice exhibition! Just keep in mind that the samples have been actual human beings and should be treated with the according respect.

Very impressive museum, I no longer have the same way of looking at the human body

Very worth while visit, nice insight into the state of happiness.

Great learning experience, got out a bit depressed though

I was not at all convinced to see this museum because I thought it was rather scabrous. However, entering and visiting the various areas of which it is composed, I was able to appreciate enormously the human "works" within it. It must surely excite, it intrigued me and certainly made me reflect and reason on how we are made and on the meaning that the author wanted to generate in the viewer: choice of the macabre or hymn to life? In your opinion ...

Incredibly factual, I really enjoyed my visit to Body Worlds. Something really unexpected to do during your visit, but well worth it.

Anyone who is interested, it is recommended ... must have seen once

20 years ago I've seen body worlds in Cologne.
It is interesting even after all these years.

Amsterdam is not badly decorated and has interesting plastinates, but this happiness factor that stretches across the exhibition bothers me. I do not have to rock and laugh between plastinates. Therefore 1 star deduction.

Real life people donating their body after death to science

Pretty good and informative. If you're into biology, this is the best place in Amsterdam for you. Its quite normal to feel a bit nauseous in the beginning, looking all those corpses but you'll get over it pretty fast.

It was the best anatomy class I ever had. It is a beautiful job to see and although they are real human bodies, one does not have a bad impression, quite the contrary, we left there more enchanted with the complexity of our bodies and the greatness of creation.

40 for two (and with reductions) for not even 30 minutes of visit by taking the time.
Subject unhealthy exploited, go to the Vrolik museum which, in addition to being free, has a medical view of the human body.

Very interesting and tastefully done insight into the human body in a number of levels dedicated to different themes.
