Science City
বিজ্ঞান নগরী
India's largest science center on the subcontinent, with a dome theatre, an evolution park, a space theatre, and an aerial cable car.
Science City opened in 1997. The complex includes a space theatre with a dome screen, a 3D cinema, dynamic simulations, the Evolution Dark Ride with life-size dinosaur models, an aquarium, and an Earth exploration hall. Outdoors there is a science park and an aerial cable car linking different parts of the complex, making it ideal for a family half-day outing. It is usually open from about 9:00 to 20:00. Each venue charges separately, and queues are long on holidays. It is located along the Eastern Metropolitan Bypass, so taking a taxi is the most convenient option.
