Dive into the world of asphalt creation

Through a scientific, playful and interactive approach, after having travelled from the infinitely large universe to the infinitely small atoms, visitors of all ages will be able to gain a more or less in-depth understanding of what this hydrocarbon really is and how it forms and moves through the layers of our planet. From life to asphalt, that is the wonderful story told by Asphalt Story.
