One of Asia's largest science museums, this is a genuinely excellent hands-on institution with interactive exhibits spanning aerospace, robotics, energy, and life sciences. The IMAX dome theater and planetarium shows are highlights worth booking separately. It's particularly well-suited for families with children but engaging enough for adults with a curiosity for science and technology. Weekends draw large school-group crowds; a weekday visit is far more comfortable.
