Science Museum Rd Mon-Wed & Fri 1-9pm, Sat, Sun & public holidays 10am-9pm.

$25, Wed free; The Hong Kong Science Museum is especially fun for children, as there are plenty of handson exhibits. Subjects include the workings of kitchen and bathroom appliances, robotics, computers, mobile phones and other electronics, and even the most Luddite of visitors should be tempted to push buttons and operate robot arms with abandon. Don’t miss the engaging look at brain perception in the “Human Body” section in the basement, or the World Population Meter, which counts up - at a frighteningly fast rate - the earth’s population. Avoid Sundays if you can, since the attraction palls rather if you have to wait in line for a turn at the best of the exhibits.
