What other travelers are saying about Osaka Science Museum
My friend and I had a lot of fun here! It was also a welcome escape from the intense heat that day.
The museum is well laid out, having visitors start at the top floor and work their way down. Every level has a different focus. I liked that exhibits were good at appealing to all ages.
Crowds were reasonable. Not too crazy. The museum was easy to access using public transit. There were bathrooms and water fountains on every floor. The whole museum was very clean. Staff was great.
The cafe didn't appear to have any vegan options. The gift shop was also limited. I didn't see any shirts for sale which surprised me.
The planetarium show was cool. No English but that's ok. Most of the other aspects of the museum had English translations available.
I would recommend this stop to others and I would go back.
Very cool museum about science with a lot of interactivity. It will especially be a joy to children and many of them were visiting beside me and enjoying their time very much. I was worried at first for the language but a lot of the panels have a qr code that offers translated content in multiple languages. However, their temporary exhibitions and shows were not translated, so be wary about that. I don't know how often their exhibition rotates but I recommend going at least once.
The interior of the museum shows an intriguing glimpse into the history and evolution of technology but leaves room for improvement. The exhibits typically showcase a mix of vintage computers, interactive installations, and multimedia displays that highlight milestones in computing, from early mechanical devices to modern-day innovations like AI and robotics. Despite its flaws, the museum succeeds in celebrating the creativity and innovation behind computing, making it an enjoyable visit for tech enthusiasts and casual visitors alike. With a bit more modernization, it could easily rise to a higher rating. The museum was abit boring and lacked interesting points for above 13 to 18. so 3.5/5 but no 3/5.
Science Museum that has everything explains and demonstrates, very easy to understand. They have a wide range of science as well, from the very basic knowledge to the very advanced one, but rest assured, everything was demonstraded in a very easy to understand manner. There are a lot of children (of course!), and might get a bit noisy, but that is just how children are. This place just shows that science is not boring. Highly recommend bringing your kids here. Very good experience, worth all the money.
Incredible science centre. Multiple floors of informative displays and countless of them are interactive too which meant the kids had a great time. As a science teacher I was thoroughly impressed. Tickets were cheap too
