“Titanic-The Experience” is an amazing, poignant exhibit and a must-see for anyone interested in her tragic and short history. There are hundreds of original artifacts on display that were recovered after spending most of the last century in the dark, frigid Atlantic waters 2.5 miles below the ocean surface. The Experience allows visitors to travel back in time and board the historic vessel where authentic artifacts recovered from the wreck site, interactive storytellers in period costume, and replicas of passenger cabins allow you to experience the unforgettable sights, sounds, and emotions of the Titanic.
“Bodies-The Exhibition” also brings guests face to face with the miraculous machine we call the human body, showcasing real, full-body specimens and organs that provide a three-dimensional vision of the human form.
It’ s fascinating and there is absolutely no other time in your life you will see a real body up close enough to see the intricacies of the human body. Especially when it is a gruesome concept to be slicing cadavers open, but I found it to be so interesting. They shown slices of the human form and all different systems- from musculoskeletal to circulatory to nervous system. Of course there are more things that public must see. There also were important spokespersons including, Dr. Roy Glover, Chief Medical Director of Bodies, Mark Lach, Creative Director of Titanic The Experience, and Alex Klingelhofer, Vice President of Collections. You will fun and absorb all the educational and entertainment experiences with this exhibition but even this is not for everybody since though some parts are interesting and real, other things you might see might be disturbing depending on the individual.
The bad news is that tickets are very pricey and not worth a second visit at a full price but there will be some deals if you look through the internet. The ongoing Exhibition is located at The Premier Exhibition Center at the Former Movieland Wax Museum in Buena Park CA. and the official opening was on August 1st
