interesting exhibitions

By far the most interesting exhibitions were,in order of merit.....
1)DPRK(no queue)
2)Belgium(about 2 plus hrs?)
3)France(about 2hrs?)
4)Canada(15 mins but was early in the morning)
5)New Zealand(15 mins but was early in the morning)

I will only review the top three!

DPRK : HAHAHAHAHA!!this exhibition is clearly the most interesting one out of the rest!!I mean its DPRK!!! I didnt think they would even have a exhibition! inside is a garden with a granite traditional bridge and a small pavilion shelter.What awes me is that they display many of their parades and television programs. Not even afraid to show just how backward their country was( im not being racist but its a fact, the people are treated absolutely equally, i saw people in very old style clothes and specs, yet they seemed to be enjoying themselves, having not a trouble in the world.Maybe just living simply is the key to life huh. :D

Belgium : i know what you are thinking of....CHOCOLATES!!(try to upload pics next time,cannot upload for some reason...) But yeah. The main highlight was that they had chocolate chefs that did really cool chocolate works.These works look
very edible,too edible in fact.But the works were just too pretty that it would be a waste to eat it.So you are really torn between the two.That is if you can even eat it,i believe that the works were not for sale,but you are able to see them at work! :D Other than this, Belgium has some pretty technologically advanced things like a 3- d coin in a screen(yesh with the naked eye), and a very advanced cool pointer thing and also picture system where you stand somewhere and they will add your picture 'live' to the screen showing a castle(moving,its a video),or a farm, etc....They have some pretty awesome artworks too! :D

France : This one is mainly for its artistry. Whether it is in Food, where you are allowed to see the cooks(they have a French cafe some part in the exhibition) do their thing,through a glass wall.Its really cool as they are really there and you can actually see the food being prepared 'live'.
And they and super famous artworks and sculptures.The artistry for this exhibition is on a whole different league. They display Van Gogh works!!The original ones!!!A very inspiring exhibition that would make you want to visit France! :D
