Review:

There are over 210,000 objects housed in the National Museum of Australia that showcase Australia’s history and cultures. Though general admission is free, you may find that special visiting exhibits incur a cost. The three permanent exhibits at the National Museum cover the First Australian, Landmarks, and Old New Land. The First Australians look at the Aborigines and the objects that they used throughout time, while Landmarks looks at important pieces of history when the British colonies established Australia for what we see today. Finally, the Old New Land exhibit looks at how people and Australia’s ecology have developed the land and culture over time.
