The National Museum of Natural History in Washington, D.C, offers you a rare opportunity to pop in for a visit without ever leaving the house. The museum, educating generations for over a hundred years, has 125 million different items on display, among them: Dinosaur skeletons, fossils, plants, rocks, stuffed animals and tools used by cavemen. And of course, there is the 2nd most viewed item on display (after the Mona Lisa) - the famous 'Le Bijou du Ro' or, hope diamond.
