A Chance to Walk Through The Human Body
Nov 05
IMAGINE sliding down intestines and strolling through lung cavities to learn how the body functions. Or, consider witnessing how the body disposes of waste.
Such a vivid and interesting learning process will soon become a reality with the upcoming Amazing Body Adventure, which opens today and will be on until Nov 21 at the Mid Valley Exhibition Centre, Kuala Lumpur.
The journey begins at the mouth. Teeth, tongue and tonsils on full display coupled with the necessary sound effects greet visitors on their way in.
From the mouth, visitors walk through the throat and on through the many branches of the lungs, liver, and the heart where they will see how the blood flows through the inner walls of the heart, to the sounds of heartbeat.
The journey continues through the stomach and the kidney, where children have a glimpse of its functions through the exposed stomach and kidneys of a four-metre statue of a boy passing urine.
Other sections of the exhibition include sliding through curvy small and large intestines, and inflatable buttocks as well as learning about the functions of the muscles, bones and blood vessels.
