Very good collection of birds and minerals. Super nice staff
I hope the museum gets public funding soon to bring this place to the deserved glory.

A really cool museum to go to and worth the money to enter. You could spend nearly all day here with a curious child or nature lover. The exhibits are informative and detailed. Card machine wasn’t working but the lady chased us down the street to offer us a way to pay via the app.
Very much worth the 10 BGN entry fees. 4 floors of interesting displays that are also in English. Would recommend.
We got there just by walking around streets, Surprised to discover 4 levels museum with such great amount of interesting stuff to see. Beginning with geological discoveries, and ending with world exploration
They should improve ventilation and air quality, hot and smelly there.
Prices are ok.

Great collection! Audioguide is a bit confused by order (and missing numbers), so if you got one - expect tiny additional quest about finding first item on the floor)))
The museum has minerals section (with nice UV case), birds floor (lot of which are probably bigger than your children), two-headed turtle, mammal floor (monk seals story made me cry, literally; zubr story is a long-term scar on heart though). Got to insect floor already exhausted a bit, but or really worth your while (for example water bug which hunts frogs) and the top of the cake is giant seashell (literally sink-size), couple of omars that could chew your leg off and the Nautilus Pompilius.

Very rich collection of flora , fauna, rocks and minerals. The staff is very pleasant and polite. The only thing I disliked is the lack of more visitors. It looks like people are more interested in simple pleasures, than in nature, science and knowledge. A pitty!!!
Good museum, 4 floors of things to see.
They should improve the ventilation because of stale smell in some rooms.
