Visvesvaraya Industrial and Technological Museum

ವಿಶ್ವೇಶ್ವರಯ್ಯ ಕೈಗಾರಿಕಾ ಮತ್ತು ತಾಂತ್ರಿಕ ವಸ್ತುಸಂಗ್ರಹಾಲಯ

One of India's first science museums, with steam engines, real aircraft and interactive science exhibits that are great for families.

Opened in 1962 and named after the celebrated Indian engineer Sir M. Visvesvaraya, the museum has galleries covering engines, electricity, space, biotechnology and a children's science playground. A steam locomotive and a jet aircraft are displayed outside the entrance. It is open about 9:30 am to 6 pm. Entry costs around 100 rupees, and the 3D cinema is charged separately. The museum sits at the southwest corner of Cubbon Park, next to the Government Museum, the Venkatappa Art Gallery and the Museum of Art and Photography, so you can turn them into a half-day museum tour.
