The National Museum Of Scotland includes two parts: A modern golden building - Museum Of Scotland and a Victorian-style Royal Museum of Scotland. The museum contains natural world, world culture, art and design, science and technology. Scottish Pavilion, a recommended place, shows the whole process of Scotland from its geological origins to the presence. The specimen of the first cloned mammal – Dolly, the sheep, is a major highlight also.
