My kids enjoyed the science museum, with the earth (volcanos, earthquakes) area being a hit, as well as the space section. The museum attempts to have interactive displays with mixed success. Many displays were being repaired, and having seen the amazing science museums in Helsinki and San Diego, this was a bit lackluster. There were a lot of school groups... More

Some areas of this place is beginning to show lots of wear and tear. This is our third time at the museum, and during our visit, we felt that the Children Rainbow Land is a bit hazardous, things are chipped, torn up, worn out (as I recall this area was closed for renovation last year, so it's shocking that it's...

Something for everybody of all ages, despite the paucity of Non-Chinese explanations for all exhibits. Kept my whole family entertained. I would advice not trying to see everything in 1 day. Disappointing that for an attraction of its caliber, they did not accept credit cards for payment of entrance fees. Try to avoid going on days when there are school... More

I've been in several science and technology museums around the world, and each and every one of them had something for adults, as well as for kids. This (huge!) museum, however, is mostly intended for kids aged 6-14. The facade of the building it truly wonderful - you may even remember it was one of the pitstop in a previous... More

Sometimes feel that Shanghai has little to offer older kids and young teens, but they may find something to interest them here. Well put together and fun. More

Easiest to get there is by metro, its stops right outside. The food court is good if you need to eat. The 3D shows is what my kids like most. There is a lot of space there for kids to run around on. More
