Although at times it does come over like an expensive advertisement for technology firm Siemens – whose groundbreaking sustainable building it inhabits – the Crystal's highly interactive displays on urban sustainability and the pressures facing the modern city are thoroughly engaging. There's also a cafe, with views over Royal Victoria Dock. You can tie it in with a cable-car journey across the river to North Greenwich.
