Micropia

The world's first microbe museum is a germaphobe's nightmare. Micropia has hands-on exhibits, microscopes to peer through and fascinating, if unsettling, facts about how many living organisms there are around us every day. Dare to take a body scan and become acquainted with your own microorganisms. Learn the unromantic side of locking lips via the kiss-o-meter. There are also glass models of viruses from Ebola to smallpox. Combination tickets are available with neighboring Artis Zoo.

It's aimed at those aged eight and over.
