11 Jungang-daero 260beon-gil, Dong-gu, Busan, South Korea
Really interactive place the kids can experience without constantly being told "no". Bonus that it's very inexpensive. It's the kind of place you can go often and see something new everytime. The only disappointment was that the playground area with super big slide was closed due to Corona virus restrictions. There's parking and lockers, and the staff were extremely friendly. They break for lunch between 12-2. We went in the morning at 10:30, then went to lunch at Smokey Grill on Texas Street, and then back to the science center from 2-3:30.
Free admission for all. Three floors of exhibits. Everything was in Korean but we used a translate app. Kids spent entire afternoon there and had a great time.
Most museum across Korea needs to a phone number and needs booking online. Since it was close to our accom, we went there around 11.30 to ask if we could book on the spot for the 2.00pm session. The staff was friendly and told us that we could come even without booking as it was not very busy. The science museum was great, maybe if our 3 and 4 years old were older, they would understand better. But they still had a great time with lot of hands on experiments. We even saw the staff demonstrating with a Tesla Coil. Place was clean. Has a waiting/ quiet area. Toilets were clean and kids friendly. As a foreigner, I wished the explanations at each station were in English but overall the wife (Korean) and the kids had a lot of fun and it is definitely a great science center.
I have been to several science museums including London, Washington and Hong Kong. This is by far the best of the bunch. A great day out for all children. The visit was not busy. It is free to enter.
Interesting experience, but there's not many attraction
