This fiction has now become a reality at the building of "CORPUS Congress Centre", Oegstgeest, Leiden, The Netherlands.
CORPUS a museum-cum-theatre-cum-conference venue is World's only building of its type and was inaugurated by HM Queen Beatrix on March 14, 2008. It is brainchild of Henri Remmers, Managing Director, Reco Productions International and has been built with the support of several foundations and organisations associated with products/services in the field of a healthy lifestyle and medical aspects of the human body.
A trip through the building provides a spectacular audio/visual experience during which the visitor can see, feel and hear how the human body works and what roles healthy food, healthy life and plenty of exercise plays.
As per CORPUS website;
"Make an amazing journey in the hearth theater as a red blood cell and discover the spectacular workings of the human brain in our brain show. How do our intestines react to a cheese sandwich? What happens when you sneeze and where on your tong do you taste sugar or salt?
Whoever enters the world's most unique and interactive attraction CORPUS, will witness in a original and informative way the spectacular ‘journey through the human body'. In the 35 meters high body this journey will take you past amazing organ theaters finally ending in the brains. This is an uninterrupted interactive experience of 55 minutes".
