The next time you’re in Durham, or looking for a day trip destination that’s fun for the whole family, head to the Museum of Life and Science. You could spend an entire day exploring the museum and all that it has to offer but you’d be remiss to skip the museum’s enormous butterfly house. Upon its completion in 2000, it was the largest butterfly house in the country.
