Something unique has grown in the Netherlands: the world's first: a spectacular experience around the human body.
The Body Museum aka Corpus in Netherlands certainly is a unique, must-see experience. Here you can get a insightful look at the human body and get answers to common questions such as ‘Why do I need to sleep?’, ‘What happens when I sneeze?’, ‘How does my hair grow?’. The eye-catching building is situated along the A44 highway between Amsterdam and The Hague.
Her Majesty Queen Beatrix will open CORPUS on March 14th 2008. CORPUS is a 'journey through the human body' during which the visitor can see, feel and hear how the human body works and what roles healthy food, healthy life and plenty of exercise plays.
CORPUS uses the latest technology in the field of imagery, sound and 3D effects to present and explain all aspects of the medical aspects of the human body.
CORPUS has been realised in a 35-meter high transparent building with the contours of the human body projecting from it.
