Advantages: Many things to do and see

Disadvantages: Shop prices

The new walk museum, on New Walk, is a free museum and is worth a visit.
I am a tour guide in Leicester, and i'ts a big attraction.
There are 6 permenant exhibitions including: The Ancient Egypt Section, The space and atmosphere section, the dinosaw section and more.
It is a two story museum, but it has full wheel chair access to both floors. There is some interactive things to do in New Walk, such as crawling under a behind glass exhibition and popping you head into the middle of it. Also there is a lot of computer for you to use relating to the things in the museum.
Upstairs isnt so interacitve, it has thousands of photos and some ornimants, there is also an old stlye board game, which you can use. Down stairs is the best place tho. There is also a gift shop, which does had quite a lot of things to buy, form sweets to dinosaw teeth, but the prices like everywhere are quite steep.

Summary: Great place and worth a visit
