Members' reviews on MUSÉUM NATIONAL D’HISTOIRE NATURELLE - JARDIN DES PLANTES
The interior of the building is magnificent on the other hand!
Overall, big disappointment, sorry to say that.
If your in Paris for 3+ days then I would add this to your list.
Nice to break up our trip to Paris with some history.
