The exhibit "Human Body- Science of Life", which already appeared in the great European capitals, was visited by millions of people and it is now in Porto, at the Customs Building, from 1 February to 31 July 2019.

The exhibit is set up to showcase the muscular, nervous, circulatory, digestive, respiratory, urinary, and reproductive systems, and displays over 100 organs, bone structures and eight real human bodies that have been preserved permanently by a process called "plastination", so as to not decay.

This rather impressive and informative exhibition of real human bodies has sparked curiosity and awe around the world with over 47 million visitors globally. It is organized in Porto by OTW - OUT OF THE WALL Private Corporation, and the main goal is to enable a journey through the human body and discover the magic and mysteries that lie underneath the skin.
