奥杜瓦伊峡谷博物馆（Olduvai Gorge Museum）详尽指南
位于坦桑尼亚北部奥杜瓦伊峡谷（Olduvai Gorge）边缘的奥杜瓦伊峡谷博物馆，是了解人类早期演化历程的绝佳场所。从建馆历史到展品展示，一步步揭示人类起源背后的故事。
博物馆简介与历史背景
这座博物馆坐落于恩戈罗恩戈罗火山口保护区（Ngorongoro Conservation Area）内，在峡谷主要干道转弯处约 5–6 公里处。
- 博物馆最早由著名古人类学家 玛丽·利基（Mary Leakey）于1970年代创立，展示该地区丰富的古人类化石与石器。
- 2017年起，新馆建设启动，并于2018年前后正式开放，展示区域扩大、建筑设计融入当地马赛人（Masai）传统建筑元素，配备露天讲座区与观景台。
展览亮点与访客体验
进入博物馆，首先映入眼帘的是关于 Leakey 家族在该地展开的发掘工作、化石挖掘流程的展板与历史照片。随后，展厅展示了古人类化石复制品、石器工具，以及著名的 莱托利 足迹（Laetoli Footprints）石印模型，该足迹距今约 360 万年，说明早期人类已具直立行走能力。
- 新馆设有屋外讲座平台，游客可在峡谷边俯瞰深约 90 米的裂谷地形，感受地质与人类进化交织的震撼。
- 建议预留 1.5 至 2 小时参观，包括博物馆内部浏览、讲座、以及下行至峡谷部分发掘点简短参观。
- 建议将其作为从恩戈罗恩戈罗保护区前往塞伦盖蒂的中途一站。
意义与参观建议
奥杜瓦伊峡谷博物馆所在的遗址，是人类考古学界的重要地点——古人类化石、石器文化、地层记录共同构成了早期人类起源的重要线索。
- 最佳参访季节为旱季（6 月–10 月），天气稳定，景观和视野佳。建议带太阳帽、防晒霜，并为拍摄峡谷景致准备相机或手机。
- 参观时，请尊重当地马赛文化，避免进入未授权发掘区域。

Even though we were 5 km away we cannot visit it because we were lacking a permit. We would have paid up to visit but without permit there is no way to visit. Make your decision at the main entrance of the park!

A Must stop if you are heading towards the Serengeti National Park! Blow my mind on the history of early man! I’ve been reading about the Leakey’s and their work and research my whole life. When my safari driver told me we were stopping by a museum on the way to Serengeti I thought to myself, I want to see wildlife! What kind of a museum is out in the middle of Africa? What an unexpected and pleasant surprise to visit Olduvai! Don’t miss it on the way to Serengeti!

Amazon museum that's well worth a visit. The views of the Olduvai Gorge are stunning and very rare to see such a high vantage point with the canyon valley below. The museum itself is very informative and setup well with lots of artifacts, English descriptions and quick wi-fi as well. It's a great spot to finish lunch as well.

We stopped here on our way to Serengeti National Park. The exhibits were well prepared and the facilities were nice after a long drive. We did a walk down into the gorge to see where the fossils and bones were found starting in the 1950's. The walk was nice for the exercise, but there was really nothing to except a post marking the site. We ate our lunch in the shady gathering area and enjoyed the view from the pavilion. Probably worth a stop just to break up the drive.

Perfect place for archeology and palaeontology. It is right at the site where most of its discoveries was done. You can get books too on site. Staff are friendly and very knowledgeable. Washrooms super clean. There's so much history to learn here.
