World Museum
Dinosaurs, an aquarium, a planetarium and Egyptian mummies, free, all under one roof.
The World Museum is the city's family museum: a bug house, a live aquarium, dinosaurs, one of the best Egyptian collections in the country and a free planetarium with timed shows. It is free and gets very busy on wet weekends and in school holidays. Book the planetarium when you arrive.
