    Easy to navigate but not ideal

    Nice variety of things and constantly changing temporary exhibits, so you can make the most of the yearly-by-default ticket (which is very affordable, and carers go free). There is a fair amount of information you cannot read from wheelchair height. The text is also very small and the glare on the glass makes it painful to read. Toilet is not good for wheelchair users.
