The former Hotel Amazon, the recent Amazon House Visitor Centre houses the exhibition of Aristocratic travels, travel adventures that displays the historic course and travel costumes as well as the travel culture of the 19th and beginning of the 20th centuries.

The show begins with evocation of travel preparations and draws attention to dangers of contemporary travels. The exhibition gives information on means of transportation, too: the way of continental transportation before railways as well as that of rail, water and air transport and travel. Visitors are introduced to the pleasure of motor drive in the last rooms. A number of interactive tools complete the experience.
