Overview

Bristol is very proud of At-Bristol and rightly so. It's a state-of-the-art centre which takes you on an amazing journey through the natural world. Kids love it and it's the perfect place to keep them amused on a rainy day-it won a 'Family Attraction of Britain' award last year, just four months after it opened. Inside, you can find out all about the diversity of species, look at the microscopic life in a drop of water, explore the living tropical rainforest (complete with free-flying birds and butterflies), experience what it's like below the sea and find the answer to questions such as 'how many mites live in an average bed!' Make sure you take a look at the 'ARKive' library-the world's first ever digital library of photos, sound and film of endangered species.
