I enjoy physics and learning about the universe so I was pleasantly surprised by this museum/attraction because it was very factual and the learning was very kinaesthetic in nature.

As two adults even we found it very educational! There are hoardes of schoolkids having a great time, exploring all the exhibits which are well designed.

After wandering the area I found the national planetarium. I was surprised when I found out that admission was free. There are a bunch of interesting displays inside for anybody interested in "space stuff". There are also free shows in the theatre throughout the day. Don't forget to check out the view at the top!

The display were not updated, and some of the exhibits were not in working order. The lower ground area (interactive section) was under maintainance, so was the observation deck.
