National Science Centre, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

The National Science Center is a crowd puller with its lively hands-on displays of science and technology. Set on the landscaped grounds of Bukit Kiara, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, the center was formally established in 1966. The science center is shaped like a futuristic, green mosque, surmounted by a wide dome, and divided into several parts, with exhibits covering the spectrum of science. Otherwise regarded as the Pusat Sains Negara, the first overhead freshwater aquarium in Malaysia that is packed with 32 local freshwater fish species, welcomes you as you make your way to the nearest exhibits. The museum has done its best to ensure that the material on displays is completely tourist-friendly with plenty of English signage. So guests from Puchong should not worry about which area to go with the center’s effort to accommodate all their visitors.

Aside from its exhibit displays, there are other services offered by the National Science Center, such as a cafeteria, a digital library, a lecture hall, and a multi-function space, serving both children and adults. For your accommodation needs, stay at New Wave Hotel Sri Hartamas, a straightforward hotel set on an urban street that is within walking distance to the shops and eateries of Central Markets. You can also stay at The Signature Hotel & Services Suites Kuala Lumpur, an upscale apartment hotel that is located on the busy streets of the city center. Guests that wish to explore historical landmarks should consider visiting Batu Caves, a popular Hindu shrine outside India that is dedicated to Lord Murugan. After having fun and educational, historical visit, relax at the tranquil Gabai Waterfalls for an after a picnic with friends.
