My son went there before on a spring outing, but didn't have enough fun. So I took him there again and played until closing time. It was so much fun that he said he wanted to go again. The best indoor playground, full of technology, allows children to understand and know many principles in life that they don't know how to explain!
Guangdong Science Center[1] is a non-profit public welfare institution with the theme of "Nature, Humanity, Science, and Civilization". It is a social science and technology activity venue that provides popular science education to the public. It is a demonstration attraction for popular science tourism and leisure. The construction of Guangdong Science Center cost RMB 1.9 billion and took nearly five years to complete. It was completed and opened on September 26, 2008. [2] Guangdong Science Center is located in Guangzhou University City. It is a large-scale comprehensive popular science venue for Guangdong Province to implement the strategy of developing Guangdong through science and education and the strategy of strengthening the province through talents and to improve the scientific and cultural literacy of the whole people. Guangdong Science Center has four major functions: popular science education, scientific and technological achievements display, international academic exchanges and popular science tourism. It is one of the largest popular science education bases in China and even in Asia, a representative project of green buildings in my country, an important window for the display of scientific and technological achievements in Guangdong Province, and a city card for Guangzhou.
The content is ⬆️, it is no worse than the California Science Center, but there is still room for improvement in management. Keep it up. I hope to add more pictures and slogans for young children. In addition to popularizing science, it should also cultivate public awareness and order habits, such as not cutting in line, not screaming, and taking care of facilities, etc.
It is convenient to take a taxi to the Science Center, but the entrance is prone to traffic jams. You have to walk through a large square from the entrance. If you take the subway, it is very far away, so you need to take a taxi or a short bus. It is suitable for people with good physical fitness who don't have luggage. If you have luggage, you can leave it at the service desk. There is a room inside that is full of various luggage. One of the bad things about the Science Center is that the closing time is too early, it closes at five o'clock. If you don't come early in the morning, you can't play. If you travel casually, it is more reasonable to arrange two days. Another bad thing is that the simple meals provided in their regular canteen are really unpalatable and expensive. The boxed lunches of 20 or 30 yuan are simply too unpalatable. In addition, the Science Center is really worth visiting with children, including adults. I saw two 70-year-old people who were looking at the experimental equipment inside with great interest and listening to the explanations. Each museum will be open for free manual explanations at a fixed time. Not many people listen. There will be a very nice man who will explain the overall layout of a venue. It takes about 20 minutes, but it is better to visit the exhibition hall and then listen to his explanation. This science center is known as the largest in the country. Compared with the Science and Technology Museum in Shanghai, it is indeed a little larger. There are various interesting experimental devices, such as the rollover experience, such as the air flow and water pressure experiment, and the magnetic experiment of dancing paper clips. Find your birthday number in pi, There are many more, but I didn’t have time to look at them in detail. But from the layout of the exhibition and the equipment of the exhibition, there is always something missing. In 2014, I went to Germany and visited a museum in Munich in their country. In fact, I think it is the Science and Technology Museum. The facilities and various experimental devices there shocked me greatly. At that time, I was thinking, how could our country not have a similar science and technology museum? Theirs is a building. When I was a child, I learned all kinds of physics knowledge, mathematics knowledge, and various theorems from books. They are all displayed with experimental devices. It is very intuitive and shocking. I think the Guangdong Science Center has a similar layout and display, but it seems not very complete. I suggest friends in Germany to supplement it. After seeing the crowded crowd in the science center, I am still thinking about another question: If we want to develop the country through science and technology, these scientific and technological experimental devices cannot only be reflected in the science center. These devices should be dispersed in various libraries throughout the city, district libraries or street libraries. It is best not to be a youth activity center, but preferably in a place suitable for all ages. That is to say, I can see an experimental device of a physical or mathematical theoretical model at my doorstep. The libraries in each district can be different. The key is that it is free and can also be interactive. Even in large shopping malls, a similar experimental device can be set up to stimulate children's interest in science and turn the experiments in books into something that can be touched and seen in reality, rather than only being seen in science centers.
Guangdong Science Center is located in Tianhe District, Guangzhou City. It is one of the largest science education bases in Guangdong Province. The center has multiple exhibition areas, including aerospace, information and communication, artificial intelligence, etc., which display the latest scientific and technological achievements and development trends. At the same time, Guangdong Science Center also provides a wealth of science activities and lectures, which attract a large number of citizens and students to participate. In general, Guangdong Science Center is a comprehensive science and technology museum integrating science, innovation and development, providing the public with a platform to understand and experience science and technology.

Guangdong Science Center is located in the University Town of Panyu District, southwest of Xiaoguwei Island. It is the largest science and technology museum and science center certified by the Guinness World Records. The exhibition hall is mainly on the 2nd floor, divided into 6 areas, and there are 4 areas on the 3rd floor. The content covers new energy vehicles, climate change, physical phenomena, children's science enlightenment, new materials, flight and space exploration, food and medicine, etc. I came here to participate in an event. At that time, I could only walk around the underground first floor. The artificial lake is quite beautiful.
The venue design is full of future feeling. There are simulated aircraft in the "Dream of the Flying Sky" exhibition area on the second floor, and adults and children can enjoy the pilot addiction. It is recommended to avoid the peak of the crowd on weekend afternoons, bring your own snacks (restaurant options are less), parking spaces are sufficient and the charges are reasonable. The perfect combination of teaching and fun, the child is still talking about scientific principles when he goes home!
