    The cultural centre at Kuwait is one of the most popular place to visit. The main highlights of cultural centre are. 1.The Natural History Museum, 2.Science and Technology Museum, 3.Arabic Islamic Science Museum 4.Space Museum. Massively built and beautifully maintained and with ample parking space. It may take an entire day to explore the museums. The tickets are also reasonable and it's open from 10am to 8pm. The science and technology section has a variety of things to offer form information to fun-filled games with various innovations. So as to describe this place, it's basically a combination of information, beauty, history that highlights the evolution of Mankind. Highly recommended 👍

    Amazing place with great thematic exhibitions. Definitely a must to see place. Be ready for long walks. If you want to see all exhibitions schedule your visit for an entire day. The cultural centre includes the Natural History Museum, Science and Technology Museum, Arabic Islamic Science Museum and Space Museum.

    Beautiful place with lovely & catchy displays. However, buying tickets could be done easier by buying online, using credit cards or cash & open for all visitors.

    Great ambiance to spend one full day without getting bored !! Earth and ecosystems are worth .. So as information about human body.. Areas of improvement 1. Refreshment facilities are limited 2. Science section can be improved 3. Many of the equipment in Robotics section are not working.. 4. Planetarium show "The Sun" was not upto the mark. Hats off to authorities who maintain cleanliness in entire area...

    A very amazing museum full of interesting stuff, however, this is not something that would be completed in one day. There are a few buildings, all of these buildings are different categories. There is: Space, Islamic culture, Robots and Transportation, the human body etc. Note --- • You won't be able to cover all the buildings in one day, I did 2 in one day • Don't rush while walking here or you will miss stuff •(!) Bring your own food and drinks, but keep them in your car. You are free to visit your car at anytime to have a good break so keep food/drink in your car. They aren't allowed in the museum though.

    One of the most amazing cultural and scientific places I've ever visited. I highly recommend a visit especially for students since they have created an awesome friendly and clever way to teach about science and culture and to present it in an easy way to understand with games and interactive screens everywhere. Thumbs up and I was really happy visiting today.

    Museums divides with its unique concept on Art, Science,technology, space and living world with post and pre historic details concise to all the age groups, making it one of the best possible way to give out the each info as displayed. The center of attraction shall be its living world with live aquarium. All and all the best to be enjoyed for those little ones who are eager to learn more from the little detail. Highly recommend to visit the place at least once for the knowledgeable experience.

    It took me two trips to really see everything. This place is massive and it has a lot to offer. The building is state of the art and the contents of the center are beautiful. They did a great job presenting culture not only for Kuwait but for all humans.

  • 4/5 mohamed y. 2 years ago on Google
    It's good to visit one time in Kuwait..it is located in sea side of the town. For this we need at least one full day to see all the 6 centers...finally the last hall is aquarium it is really fantastic and very joyful for kids. Learning students can know about space and science...cost is high 3 kd per person and for child 2 kd ...there is no proper dine in facility....only Starbucks is available and no item available for lunch ...so costly.... but overall it is good.

The museum is located in Al-Shaab District, Hawalli Governorate, Kuwait. And it bears the name of Sheikh Abdullah Al-Salem Al-Sabah (the father of independence and the constitution) in Kuwait.

  • 5/5 Rana M. 5 years ago on Google
    It was very interesting and educational and I loved going there. Its a 3 KD per person entry ticket and it includes all six buildings of the museum so there is quite a lot to see. And there is a coffee shop in most of the buildings. The outside area is very green and beautiful so it makes a nice place for walking. Its very good value for money when compared to Scientific Center which is 4 KD for the aquarium only. But you should keep in mind that its a museum so its mainly just figurines besides a small aquarium so if you want to see live animals then scientific center is the place to go.

    One of the best museums I’ve been around the world. Just wow! I went on a Monday afternoon, and there were hardly any visitors. I’d got back to Kuwait just to visit this place once again.

  • 5/5 Sami M. 2 years ago on Google
    One of the best cultural places, phenomenal place, a place the family and kids would spend time with no feelings, the efforts done by the government is amazing and great The activities you would practice and the huge amount of informations (historical, scientific, technology and many others) is just priceless. I'm really grateful to all parties involved to make just a landmark project.

    It's an awesome place to gain wonderful knowledge especially for kids. The ticket price is KD: 3/- per person and it will take almost one complete day to visit all the places which are shown in the attached leaflet. Very good hospitality. Ecosystem is very good, must visit. In Human body hall they have lot of activities which can test your ability, some physical activities, how to manage the diet, life style etc. Regards

    The centre has 6 very different and interesting parts; The Natural History Museum, Science Museum, Space Museum, Arabic Islamic Science Museum, Fine Arts Centre, and the external spaces known as the Public Realm. You can get to learn about space, motor industry evolution, animals and nature. My favourite parts were the space centre and watching the fish. The downside is there is no personalised tour guide for an individual and the place can get confusing due to its large size.

    Beautiful place! For 3kd admission you can spend all day there with the family. Make sure you wear comfortable shoes as you will be walking around alot if you plan to visit every single part of the museum. Please note that no cameras are allowed in the museums so save yourself the pain of planning your camera gear if you intend to create content there. Also, fluids are prohibited in the museums, you will have to check in water bottles before entering. Luckily there is a Starbucks branch in there. Staff are friendly if you follow the rules Please keep this clean and don't litter in the parks surrounding the museums

    It is one of the few places in kuwait that is worth its price.. Had an absolutely beautiful experience. The cultural centre comprises of different themed museums like space, science & technology ( human body and transportation), fine arts, natural history and ecosystem. My favourite was the ecosystem museum which had a life like ambience, you could feel the rainforest vibe and even get the fresh air smell .. There are plenty of interactive activities in every museum which will keep you engrossed for hours. It's a kids friendly place and the children and adults both get to learn alot of new informative things and increase their knowledge.. There's also a scavenger hunt which you can participate in and get a chance to win gifts. (Uptil 7 pm only) The entry fees is 3 kd for adults above 18 and 1.5 kd for kids ( which is totally worth it).

This museum had got 6 different themes that one could visit, them being Space, Islamic Art and Science, Ecology, Science and Technology, Our Earth and Human Body. With great exhibits and good cafeterias, this is a museum to watch to. Not only will you appreciate the futuristic architecture but will also enjoy the great serenity of this place!!

    I have visited the earth section with my family recently. Wonderful place!!! Dinosaurs are like alive... kids were so surprised of large and high quality exhibition. First off all you should be aware of the exact entrance you need, you will be guided by stuff inside the center... everything is highly organised, parking, stairs, maps and a crowd of very cooperative stuff. The center is so huge... we have done one earth block spending 2 hours only... means you are unable to visit all the territory. 7 pm is the time you have to leave the exhibition... but the rest of the open air zone is open and very good for walking around and kids have a fun. Many many thanks for developers and all the people who created that unbelievable project to exist. I will come here many times more.

    In 2018, I had the privilege of visiting the Sheikh Abdullah Al Salem Cultural Center in Kuwait. This was a behind the scenes tour before the opening. It is located in Shaab, Kuwait commissioned and owned by the Diwan Al Amiri. It consists of six main pavilions; The Natural History Museum, Science Museum, Space Museum, Arabic Islamic Science Museum, Fine Arts Centre and the external spaces known as the Public Realm. I would strongly recommend a visit if you're in Kuwait. They've got great exhibitions in each of the six buildings. Try to beat Usain Bolt in a 100m race if you can!

    An engineering marvel establishing human capabilities using bricks and iron. Combined with efforts that insure a clean and climate controlled environment for hours long expedition. If you are a resident or visitor, a place that you must not miss.

    Another very good educational centre for kids and adults alike with wonderful simulations, and games to enrich your knowledge and quench your educational thirst. A different approach from Scientific Centre, overperforming on some fronts and underperformed on some but a great effort overall. The staff is quite well informed, courteous, and very helpful. Parking and food outlets are quite sufficient. Downsides are forgetting where you parked!!!

    One of the must to visit destination at Kuwait. No expenses were spared! It would be wonderful if the museums were filled with Actual specimens instead of artificial stuffs. Nevertheless it's an amazing and interactive place to satisfy our Curiosity.

    Very well maintained place with lots of learning not only for kids but elders as well. The shows are informative but you have to buy separate tickets for them.

    Amazing place! I love everything about this outstanding place, it consists of 6 buildings and each building represents a kind of knowledge, I liked the aquarium and planet earth building, I also loved the bicycle and ships history! Needles to say how amazing was the Islamic art and architecture section, I honestly did not like the space sciences building. Also sometimes you can try some experiments yourself to learn in a practical way not only theoretically. Please, if you ever visit Kuwait put this place on your list, they charge a ticket of 3 KWD and it closes at 19:00.

    Very nice place. Suitable for all age groups. Educational and has interactive devices that allow you to learn more about specific topics. Also spacious! However, I wish it had more food services (when I visited it, it only had Starbucks..)
