Goblins, monsters, and mummies are things that come to mind when Halloween treks around, although have you ever seen these scary beasts of the night? Well here is your chance to come face-to-face with real mummies.
The largest traveling exhibit of mummies is now at the California Science Center in Los Angeles available to patrons, otherwise known as, Mummies of the World.
According to the California Science Center Web site, Mummies of the World consists of both accidentally and intentionally preserved mummies, which are presented with dignity.
Not only does this exhibit contain mummies, but important artifacts to accompany these mummies.
The mummies and artifacts are from all over the world, such as Asia, Oceania, South America, Europe, and of course, Egypt.
The exhibit also has interactive parts throughout the mummy maze that illustrate how current science tools allow non-invasive examinations of the mummies.
The recommended time-span for viewing the exhibit is 75 minutes. This allows visitors to view and explore everything in a timely manner.
Tickets range differently in price for age groups, although the price for an adult is $19.50, which is without any additional fees.
Purchasing tickets for this event can be done three ways. Firstly, online is the best option, seeing as how these are considered “timid tickets”, which means that the exhibit runs on certain times and dates. Thirdly, they can be purchased at the California Science Center at arrival.
Additionally, there are parking fees, which consist of $8 for vehicles and $10 for buses.
This exhibit is a spooky Halloween treat for the whole family, and it is ending soon. “The exhibit is ending on Thanksgiving, which is Nov. 25,” said a retail manager at the exhibit. Thus, there is not much time left to enjoy this magnificent mummy display.
