    Nice place to visit. Particularly interesting for children. It is costly in terms of tickets and entertainement. But with the various activities, toy train, boating, shows, huge area, dinosaur park and children enjoyment, with paying the price. Some area was closed today but enough for the day. Normally they ask for package, you can take package which usually costs lower. There are many scenic area, if you like photography then I believe you should plan according for the day light or Sun light directions for best shots.

    A place to learn about science in a fine way but it is not managed well these days. At some places you don’t see any proper control or order. System fails when there is high rush of students.

    This place is made to understand the basic concepts of science in a very interesting way. You must visit there once at this place. Very large area, I learned different topics of science there and also understand the basic structure and functioning of human body. It takes 5-6 hours to see all the things. Different topics are- Climate change, Laser show, Flight Simulator, Dome theatre and many more.

    PGSC is one of its kind in India with science as a theme for something on the lines of an amusement park. There are no roller coaster rides there but yes they have film shows in Imax and few other rides and shows.all related to scientific principles. Amazing exhibits and informative galleries that show human evolution and other scientific achievements. MUST SEE - laser show because it is unique and the IMAX dome show. You can see botanical garden, solar panels, wind mill and other gadgets also.

  • 3/5 shadabul h. 8 months ago on Google • 81 reviews
    Good place for family outing and specially for kids Ample space for parking Dinasaur park is great A well maintained canteen is also available there after entry Entry tickets found little more if opting for simulator and the shows like , 3D show, simulator, laser show, show about mountain climbing Entry ticket was 410 approx for adults and 300approx for kids more than 3 years including all the shows and entry.. Without shows it is approx 180 which is also good as u can enjoy everything inside except the shows. Dinasaur park, normal parks etc is available in this charge Only 3D show ( About 5-10 mins) and the shows of mountain climbing We enjoyed the most , other simulators, laser shows are not upto the marks

  • 5/5 Manish G. 2 years ago on Google
    Must visit for everyone, plan to start before 10 am, so that you can complete it by 4 pm. Spend your maximum time at science emporium. Dino park is good one. Don't waste your time for climate change simulator, laser show, 3d show and dome show, they are waste of time. Resturant food is good and you can have fast food or lunch there, economical. Ticket rate is worth.

  • 4/5 Iqbal S. 4 years ago on Google
    It's an amazing place. Life size dinosaurs of all kinds, with names and other details mentioned next to each. It matches the kinds we see in north America. Some of them even move and make sounds , look very real. In addition, they have beautiful landscaped gardens, boating, amphitheatre, fun learning centre for science with areas in digital and virtual arts, aircraft simulations and a lot more activities. Even includes a small play area for kids. The canteen serves decent food though toilets could have been cleaner. I wish more people knew about this place...its a highlight of punjab and should be better advertised to attract more people. My 4 years old loved it to the core and the prices for a family pack are very reasonable, around 500-600 rupees.You can never go out of this place dissatisfied.

    The Pushpa Gujral Science City is located on outskirts of Kapurthala. it spread across 72 acres and was created with the aim of infusing a modern, scientific temper into this predominantly agrarian. An impressive dinosaur welcomes visitors to the museum.

    A nice place for children as well as adults. It's not just science facts on display but actual visualization of the same. It's science with a lot of entertainment. To see the complete science city atleast 3 hrs time is required. The theatre show runs every hour again and other simulations have fixed timings too. Cafeteria is also there providing food on the go.

  • 5/5 Sangeeta P. 5 years ago on Google
    It was a great experience. The best was to see the robotic dino park, where we see the dinosaur opening their mouths, moving there faces and tails; even stomach of one of the dino was flattening and expanding on breathing. One dino was blinking. The dome theatre show is another attraction. However we don't like the 3d show, may be the goggles used were not of good quality. The laser show was also good.
