A Trip to Latvia: Anima In The Animus- 2 (PHOTO STORY)

On the second day of the visit to Riga, Latvia, the Uprising Platform was at the nature (otherwise called the Museum of Natural History Museum. The museum featured every animal mentioned in the Old Testament of the Bible from Noah's Ark, including reptiles, birds, and prehistoric creatures. The anima in the animus of these creatures was meticulously represented with profound attention to detail.

The ambience of the museum encapsulates the geographical location or zones of these species impeccably. For instance, the room that had the sea animals, such as the penguins, fish, and dolphins, was made to be cold, as it gave the tourists that chilly feeling, as you would if they sat by the ocean in Europe. Meanwhile, the animals from the African continent were preserved in a humid room to describe the temperature in that part of the world.

Anima in the Animus


As a Nigerian, I was quite impressed as I was only seeing some animals for the first time. In primary and secondary school, I had only theoretical knowledge about these creatures; however, during my recent visit to the Museum of Natural History, my understanding of animals was further broadened.

Animals weren’t the only subject matter at the museum; there was an exposition on Geography, Ecology, Meteorology, and various forms of natural disasters such as Geological disasters, Hydrological disasters, Meteorological disasters, climatological and environmental disasters. Further explanations were given to describe the causes of several hazardous incidents that occur on Earth. You can check out the Instagram page, Uprising Platform to watch the video.

The fun didn’t stop there; a room describing the various planets and firmaments could be seen in the museum as well. It is an ideal environment to learn about animal science, geography, and human evolution, yup, we have that story of how monkeys transitioned into humans in there too.
