Lonely Planet review for Museu de Ciências da Terra
With curved staircases and statues out the front, this majestic building went through many incarnations before it housed the Earth Science Museum. The four-room exhibit gives an overview of the natural history of Brazil. Other rooms showcase the museum’s extensive collection of minerals, rocks and meteorites – 5000 pieces in all.
