It was surprisingly very entertaining and delightful experience on a very rainy and windy day in Osaka City. Great day activity for both families and couples alike. A lot of Japanese people had gone there with their dates. Some of the science experiments require you to be two people. Three floors of interactive and educating science stuff. Most explanations and descriptions are in Japanese so perhaps not the best if you don't know any Japanese or don't really understand science. They are only open until 5pm so male sure you come about two hours before if you really want to read and experience most of the stuff in there without rushing through it. Bring your university ID with you if you study in the University.

Right place to explore and experience science with fun learning tools. Children (& even adults) can enjoy this place. It has planetarium that show a movies several times a day. It is located in front of Osaka Museum of Art.

A fun place for all those who enjoy Science and like to understand how every day things work. There is more value in this if you enter using a one-day or 2 day pass. We completed this place in 40 minutes, but that was towards closing. So I'm guessing average time spent here should be around 40-60 minutes.

Get your hands on science! Only direct encounter can make people to better understand how the things work. And this museum is the place for it. I recommend to spend at least 2 hours for exhibition and another 45 mins for planetarium (in Japanese but the views are stunning even without understanding the language).

More catered to young children and middle schoolers as there are fun activities to try out. Or it's also for people who want to review their knowledge of Science. The transition between each floor is a bit perplexing as certain floor you can use the elevator and other floors with the escalator or the stairs.

One of the better science museums I’ve been to. Maybe not the newest in terms of technology inside, but there’s a lot of hands on things to try. Excellent for the kids. My 6 year old son loved it.

Interesting museum if science. Similar to the Science and Industry museum in Chicago. Cheap and with easy access. Nevertheless, only Japanese is the language available for all the information and attractions. So keep that in mind.

Would be really good with kids. We were going to the art museum next door but it was closed for exhibit change out so we came here instead. English descriptions are scant but the exhibits are good. Lots of interactive stuff for kids.

Many fun and educational demonstrations for all sorts of space, chemistry, physics, electricity etc. related topics. Absolutely worth the ~¥300 entry. Did not try the planetarium as it wasn't available until 2pm, perhaps because the school groups booked it.
The ~5 school groups made the visit extremely lively.

Definitely one of the best science museums I’ve been to and would definitely recommend for both kids and adults. On top of having a lot of hands-on interactive learning for kids, there’s a lot of exhibits about modern scientific discoveries. The vast majority of the museum is in Japanese, however the English speaking staff happily explains exhibits and answers questions. The 4 floors were definitely worth the ¥600
