Outstanding historic collections + several interesting exhibitions
Harvard Museum of Natural History的点评
点评：Harvard's Museum of Natural History has outstanding historic collections + several interesting exhibitions located just a short walk from Harvard Yard. Several of the galleries go into some depth on some topics, so you get more than just a simple overview. Exhibitions of particular interest (most of which were donated by an alumnus who was interested in the topic):
• the mineral & gem collection is extensive, going into some depth on how these are formed, what the major varieties are, and showing lots of samples drawn from across the world.
• another highlight are the galleries of flowers & sea creatures made entirely of glass models.
• these glass models are beautiful (handmade by a family from Bohemia) and will never fade like a real sample would.
• kids & adults will like the special exhibition on the history of sea monster legends and why so many of them were added to nautical maps of that era to scare the sailors.
• the beetles collection (from one of the Rockefeller's) shows specimens collected over a lifetime.
• the mammals gallery has been restored to its original layout (with taxidermy animal specimens & giant whale skeletons hanging from the ceiling), so you can see how 19th Century Harvard students were taught about the natural world.
A great place to visit if you're interested in natural history.

翻译：哈佛大学自然历史博物馆拥有杰出的历史藏品和多个精彩展览，距离哈佛园仅几步之遥。部分展厅深入探讨特定主题，让您获得更全面的了解，而不仅仅是简单的概览。以下展览尤其值得关注（大部分藏品由对该主题感兴趣的校友捐赠）：
• 矿物和宝石藏品丰富，深入讲解了它们的形成过程、主要种类，并展出了来自世界各地的众多标本。
• 另一大亮点是完全由玻璃制成的花卉和海洋生物模型展厅。
• 这些玻璃模型精美绝伦（由波西米亚的一个家庭手工制作），而且永不褪色，不像真正的标本那样容易褪色。
• 关于海怪传说历史的特别展览，讲述了当时许多海怪被添加到航海地图上以吓唬水手的原因，相信大人小孩都会喜欢。
• 甲虫藏品（来自洛克菲勒家族的捐赠）展示了其毕生收集的标本。
哺乳动物展厅已恢复原貌（天花板上悬挂着动物标本和巨大的鲸鱼骨架），让您得以一窥19世纪哈佛学生是如何学习自然知识的。
如果您对自然历史感兴趣，这里绝对值得一游。
