Vero Scultura

Museum

😐 The place has a nice idea, but very simple, small and very few statues on display, you can finish the tour in 10 min. The gentleman at the admission desk led the tour and he was very informative. The resemblance of the statues to the actual real people is questionable, but close enough. Is it worth...

Dar El-Nimer for Arts and Culture

👍👍 Attended the blue inmates; the film sheds the light on inmates suffering from mental illness and facing a life sentence in prison.

👍👍 A walk through a painful history. The way this museum was designed is very creative.

The sound effect is a plus and an addition to all the emotions they're trying to interpre...
