Take the Metro A line to Universidad station and go into the Museum which also houses an aquarium, an interactive mental acuity museum, and the planetarium. The staff is wonderful, will approach you and engage you to help you get the most from the displays. This is a great value and is a nice way to spend a day.

Museo del Agua is less museum and more edutainment - but that is in no way a criticism. This beautifully put together series of interactive displays and hi-tech infotainment is a delight to behold. It helps (greatly) if you speak Spanish, but that shouldn't deter you if you don't. My guide had a smattering of English and together with my smattering of Spanish we made a jolly good go of it. Oh, that's the other thing... for the grand entry price of 6,000 COP, you get your own personal tour guide. If that's not the deal of the century, then I don't know what is. Highly recommended.
When I visited, the last gallery had a photographic exhibition on water sports. I am unsure if it was a permanent or temporary display, but it was the icing on this particular cake. Wow.

There is a tour every 15 minutes. There is a guide that explains all the things. There are around 9 rooms and you can learn useful and curious things about the origins of the water or some special zones in Colombia.
Even, you can use a microscope to see bacteria in the water.

This museum has been placed by the Water Museum, which was interesting, but not as interesting as what we thought we were going to!

I had to wait an hour for the 2.15pm tour.....anyhow it was all in Spanish but very interesting....more a school kind of museum to teach the basic of water conservation and not to polute.....a bit ironic knowing how polluted the main river through Medellin is...but apparently they are working on it.

The museum gives young children the experience to discover and interact with science topics, that they had never being in touch before.

From the dinosaurs & interactive exercises in the courtyard which display principles of physics to the interior groups, this is a great place for kids.

Had so much fun. It had a history museum with dinosaurs and another building had information on the history of communication. Lots and lots of things to do and see here. A lot of hands on activities.

There was so much to do here, we couldn't fit it into one visit. It's right off the Metro, which makes it super convenient. We spent over an hour and never made it inside! There were so many activities outside! We have planned a second trip back to Medellin just to visit this museum.

We went with our young nephews and everyone had a really great time. They in particular loved the snow/ice feature as they had never been in extreme cold and the 3D movie were the highlights for them. It's an excellent place to spend a half day.
