    We visited the Natural History Museum on 10 May 2022. I specifically wanted to see the dodo exhibition and it was totally worth the effort of visiting the museum. Best of all, there is no entry charge. A fascinating museum featuring many interesting animals, insects and fish, and, of course, the dodo exhibition. Make sure you visit the Natural History Museum when you are in Mauritius.
