This is a must do. So many things to touch, like seals, bears and huskys which you wonder what they feel like well now I no. We spent hours in there. Wonderful

Well worth a soggy walk. Lots of interesting exhibitions on Arctic life. The Sami exhibition is particulary good

I found I was easily bored by it. The room that interested me most, the Sami culture, was well done. I'd have appreciated...
