Maloka
Maloka Centro Interactivo
Colombia's largest interactive science centre, with hundreds of hands-on exhibits and a dome theatre, ideal for families with children.
Maloka opened in 1998. Most of the building is underground. Its exhibition areas cover themes such as the universe, the human body, biodiversity, cities and technology, with hundreds of interactive exhibits and a giant dome cinema. Admission is about 20,000–30,000 pesos, and combo tickets include the cinema. It is located in the Ciudad Salitre area in western Bogotá, near Simón Bolívar Park and toward the airport, so it can be visited on the same day as the park and the botanical garden.
Opening hours
