Museo Laberinto de las Ciencias y las Artes
An interactive science museum designed by Mexican architect Ricardo Legorreta. Its colorful geometric buildings are a draw in themselves, and it suits families with children.
The museum opened in 2008. It is a late work by architect Ricardo Legorreta and is instantly recognizable for its magenta and ochre cubic volumes, open water features and towers. The interior focuses on hands-on interaction, covering physics, astronomy, biology and art, with a large dome theater and temporary exhibitions. Children can spend half a day playing here. It stands on the south side of Tangamanga I Park, so the two can be visited together. It is closed on Mondays and crowded on public holidays.
