I didn't think the lighting was very good and made the minerals hard to see properly sometimes. Also you have to bend down quite a lot to read the labels. There are a lot of different types of minerals (as well as a materials section). I especially liked some metallic-green, alien-like malochite I came across upstairs at the back. Well worth the 4 leva, and only a short walk from my hostel in the centre. I probably spent about an hour inside and I will go again if I have the chance.

Great collection of minerals. It was very interesting.
The lighting and interior should be improved - they need more lights in some places and contemporary look.

Very nice collection of minerals. The museum is not very big, but deginately worth seeing.

Wonderful collection of minerals - one of the best I've seen, I could spend all day here! ☺️

The permanent exhibition of minerals is good, but not something unseen. However the place holds a large numbers of other events through the year and they usually appeal to many people. My personal favorite is the feline exhibition where rare cat breeds are shown, you can buy a kitten and see some cats you have a very little chance to see in real life (except on a picture, of course). However there are more and more than half of the year there is something else than just rocks and other minerals. Just check the calendar and most often than not you will have some interesting to see there.
