A world of bees
The world of bees is both simple and complex. A bee has a fairly simple life task: it must collect pollen that can be turned into honey in order to survive.
But the mechanisms behind the pollination of plants and fruits, and the entire impact it has on the Earth's cycle, are a science. We are all part of a superorganism, both humans and bees.
Experience the exciting world in which the bees live in the exhibition at Munkeruphus.
