Good learning for children, school children and even for adults ; as they see the practical way of science. Being it Physics, Chemistry, Geography, History, Mechanical, Electrical.

Certainly the museum will be Memorable, Impressive & Knowledgeable for all visitors. You'll need atleast 3 hours to visit all exhibits in a slow pace,otherwise 2 hours in fast pace.

Well researched, interactive, beautifully created and laid out-- this museum is a must-see if you want to learn about Indian music. Laid out across 3 floors, it is recommended to start from the 3rd floor and walk down to the 2nd and then the first and finally back to the ground. The place pulls you in as you get off the elevator and enter the 3rd floor with a lovely animated film and the experience only gets better and better from there. Do stop and hear the music, songs, etc at the interactive displays. Keep at least 3 hours to see the whole museum. There is a cafe and a shop at the ground level and parking in the basement on site. The entry fee is INR 250 for adults and INR 150 for children. Open every day except Monday from 10 am to 6 pm. Kudos to the creators!
