    What an amazing place! We happened to see this museum as we…read morewere walking by and were intrigued by their moving signage. Inside there are plenty of machines that whir and perform small tasks or even make music. Lots of interactive things to see and do, buttons to push, pedals to press, even a magnetic marble track you can build yourself! It's a treat for young and old and definitely worth the small entry fee.

    The opening hours are stated for October to March. Opening hours from April to September are a…read morelittle longer (10:30 to 18:30 daily). A friend recommended this place to me thinking that my boys would like it. My friend was right! We did all enjoy the interactive displays. The extent of the interactivity is mainly pressing a button though but it's still good. There is an interesting range of mechanical art and my boys and I were fascinated by the mechanisms. It is quite a small place. It cost £19 for the four of us (2 adults and 2 children) which isn't too bad but, considering we spent less than an hour in there and saw everything, it does seem a little expensive. There are two floors. One very small room on each floor displaying different pieces of art. It can get rather crowded due to the small size, especially downstairs where the entrance/exit is the same. In the same small area, there is a counter where there is a single member of staff who both admits people and serves the gift shop. The gift shop is basically a small portion of the wall within the ground floor of the museum. Many items are over-priced and the selection is very limited. We did enjoy ourselves there and would recommend it but it could get claustrophobic and the upstairs can be noisy (although it does state this on the signage).

    Beautiful museum. I know what you're thinking: Porcelain? Boooring. But actually it's a really…read moreinteresting experience. I was on my homestay before arriving in London for a semester, and I was staying with an elderly couple in Worcester for a couple days. Our group had arranged a little field trip for everyone staying in Worcester and so we all went to the Porcelain Museum. The little complex itself is very cute and historic-looking. Inside are some of the most gorgeous pieces of artistry I've ever seen. They took us through the painting room to see some of the painters in action, and it's incredible how much concentration these people have to paint beautiful pieces with tiny little details. It was really amazing just to stand there and watch them for a couple minutes as they painted the vines in a leaf that was all of a quarter-inch big. Then, they let us paint our own plates! They had a couple templates that you could just paint in (I selected the "Cheeky Monkey" template) as well as blank plates for the more artistically-inclined. Of course they let us take them home as a souvenir. A very interesting museum and a great experience.

    I have given this 4 stars because it is an excellent museum for showing the history of one of the…read moreoldest porcelain producers in Britain, with many old, valuable and beautiful exibits on display. The only reason it doesn't get 5 stars is that despite it's attemps to provide interest for the ipod generation, to most of them, porcelain will always just be something Granny keeps in her china cabinet.
