Macao Science Center
澳門科學館
A tilted, cone-shaped silver building designed by I. M. Pei, with interactive exhibition halls and a planetarium. It's a popular choice for family outings.
The Macao Science Center opened in 2009. It was designed by I. M. Pei's firm, and its main body is a tilted silver-white cone on the New Port waterfront. Its 14 exhibition halls, connected by spiral ramps, cover interactive themes such as children's science, space, robotics and meteorology, and the planetarium shows 3D dome films. Admission to the exhibition halls is about MOP 25, with the planetarium charged separately. It is closed on Thursdays, except public holidays. Next door are the Kun Iam Statue and the seafront promenade.
