Interesting place to visit for all ages of people irrespective of educational background. Lot of things have been explained in simplified way. Children's will definitely enjoy.
Such a wonderful experience here, there are so many new things and technology to see and touch here. I was very impressed when i visited here for first time. in best locality near Lower Parel Local Station.
Nehru Science Centre (NSC) is the largest interactive science centre in India. It is located in Worli, Mumbai. The centre is named after India's first Prime Minister, Jawaharlal Nehru. In 1977, the centre started with the 'Light and Sight' exhibition, and then in 1979 a Science Park was built. On 11 November 1985 it was opened to the public by Rajiv Gandhi, the then Prime Minister of India.
In 1977, Nehru Science Centre, first conceived as a Science & Technology Museum in late sixties, took final shape as India's largest interactive science centre, to match the world trends in such public institutions. The centre opened its first semi-permanent exhibition `Light & Sight' in 1977 followed by the world's first ever Science Park in 1979, during the International Year of the child. On 11 November 1985 the full-fledged science centre was finally opened to public by the late Rajiv Gandhi, then Prime Minister of India.
Nehru Science Centre, the largest Science Centre in the country has a sprawling 8 acres (32,000 m2) of science park with varieties of plants, trees and shrubs. More than 500 hands-on and interactive science exhibits on energy, sound, kinematics, mechanics, transport, etc. are installed in the park. The NSC building, with its unique architecture, houses several permanent science expositions on various theme.
A must visit place if you are planning a Mumbai trip. Best for kids as it showcases the importance of science in our day to day life. Because of its equipments and the laboratory it helps one understand the science at the easiest form of way.
Best for school children to understand some basics of science and experience them in forms of various experiments. Carry your own food so that you can have a picnic feeling as well.
