An interesting museum

Sometimes, when you are having a tour, you need an experienced scuba instructor. For example, in Mexico, near the resort of Cancun, such equipment is necessary. Stunning underwater museum is located on a depth of 10 meters.
The entire exhibition is called "Silent Evolution" and is devoted to the history of mankind, from the Mayan civilization to the modern society. This miracle was created by a British sculptor Jason Taylor. He believes that due to the underwater sculpture museum many divers will switch from the studying of coral reefs to the new location. Thus it will be able to restore the damaged fauna in this part of the Caribbean Sea.
The creation of this collection took half of the year...and also 120 tons of cement, about four thousand meters of fiberglass and 400 kilograms of silicone. The budget of this grand project is about 350 thousand dollars. Government of Mexico has given more than a half of it.
