Museum Night 2019

In France, there is a European Museum Night once a year. Numerous museums and galleries in Paris and Ile de France are open to anyone free of charge from 7:00 pm until midnight. These days, sunsets are around 9:30 pm, so if you are outside at 7 pm, the sun is warm enough to confuse the morning or afternoon.

There was a forecast of showers, but I couldn't miss this golden opportunity, so I rested at home and ate an early evening.

In fact, I wanted to go to Louis Vuitton Foundation with its unique architectural beauty. Impressionism was in progress, and every time I went to Boulogne Forest, I saw the unique and futuristic building. World-renowned architect Frank Gehry is a state-of-the-art building that embodies twelve glass sails.

But with their strong arguments and majority rule, we eventually headed for the National Museum of Natural History. Arrived seven minutes before seven o'clock, the people who came first and waited were making a long procession. Many young couples, as well as family members like us, and middle-aged and old-aged couples seemed to come here for a date.

We also joined a long line to enter the Museum of Evolutionary Science in the Natural History Museum.

There are 7000 stuffed animals on display, and you can see animals that are already extinct or endangered. Some of them are over 300 years old, and the French expedition has traveled around the world from 1762 to the 19th century, bringing them to analyze and study a wide variety of vertebrates.

In addition to the Museum of Evolutionary Science, the Natural History Museum also houses a museum of dinosaur bones.

As with most boys, our dinosaur children were inclined to meet the dinosaurs, but they were very disappointed to see that the building was closed tightly.

I visited with my cousin sister who came to Paris to play last winter vacation.

The vast grounds next to the National Museum of Natural History include a botanical garden and a zoo. When I went in winter, there were no flowers, but this time, the garden of the botanical garden was full of beautiful colorful flowers. Although I couldn't afford to take a closer look at the flowers as I walked toward the Evolution Museum, I'm lucky to see a flower garden in the city that could exist in a fairy tale world.

After the bag was inspected, we entered the Museum of Evolution Science and welcomed us with a large whale bone under dark, bluish lighting.

The interior of the museum, as if you were exploring the deep sea, added to the exhibition. My heart pounded like a thrill when the lights went out before the movie was shown in the theater. The children also clasped my hands with full of expectation that their chest was beating.

On the ground floor (French 0), marine life was exhibited in model or stuffed form.

The first child was impressed with an exhibition of the Narwhal, an endangered animal with horns, such as the mythical unicorn, and the second child also liked sharks the most. The child enjoyed playing with his head and hands constantly in the dark and dreadful shark mouth.

I also saw the horned whale and was amazed that such a unique whale existed. However, this particular animal was actively traded at a high price, and it was quickly saddened that the horned whale hunt was endless.

On the second floor was a display of works of art, with marches of various mammals such as giraffes, elephants, zebras and lions. Speakers were installed between the animals, so I heard the crying of various animals at once and looked at the model animals that were made just like the real animals.

Looking at the scene from the 3rd and 4th floors, the animals marched at a glance.

On each floor there were games on the computer screen that conveyed scientific information about the animals near stuffed mushrooms, insects, shellfish and animals. Children were more excited to touch games than to watch stuffed animals.

We had the most fun on the 3rd floor (French 2nd floor)

Here, the real figures of the extinct animals were displayed in a glass tube. Extinct and endangered animals, as well as rare and unique animals are on display, allowing you to observe their appearance in detail. Some were roaring and ready to attack, and some were staring at something elegant. Others were in what seemed to be eating, or in some poses of dynamism.

The first child looked at each of those stuffed animals and took pictures.

In addition to the familiar animals we know, it was a time when a myriad of animals existed on our planet. It was also a time to reconsider the fact that there are many animals of similar but different appearances within one animal category, while at the same time the alarm that a significant number of precious animals are now on the verge of extinction.

Watching all this, the first child asked.

Will we be extinct?

I think we'll disappear from the earth too ...

I couldn't think of anything to say in front of a child who was throwing so profound questions innocently and seriously.

We continue to do our best to bring endless development, innovation and development, to profitlessly destroy nature and destroy nature's order, and to end other creatures without endangerment without guilt. If we live selfishly and greedyly, will there be an era of self-destruction?

I can't say that this assumption is limited to the science fiction novel.

The environmental problems associated with global warming are serious. In this way, natural disasters and food shortages could lead to the earth itself.

Even if we try to reduce the temperature of the earth by cooperating at the global level, even if we do not have a hat for tomorrow, we will not be able to fulfill our international commitments to reduce greenhouse gas. to be.

Because I am such a human, I don't know how to convey my opinion that I think I can kill myself any time soon.

Something that once existed on earth but disappeared and now remains in the museum as a stuffed animal has been pushed for some reason.

What is the human animal that continually injures, fights, and kills other beings after something that is not forever and for what is not forever? What should we head for?

Like a blockbuster movie, a lightly-initiated museum tour was a museum night that only asked heavy questions to solve.

Hi there. Your post looks like it's to be pinned to the wrong place (not in Paris, which is where this museum appears to be). Please fix this when you get a chance. Thanks.
