    (Translated by Google) molt mala ment, the truth that they did not want to work, on top of which I pay them they do not work. They treated me fatally, I had to go to the hospitalet of the attack of fear that the planetarium gave me. not over Catalan creams to eat. a mierdet (Original) molt mala ment, la verdad que no tenian ganas de trabajar, encima que les pago no trabajan. Me trataron fatal, tuve que ir al hospitalet del ataque de miedo que me dio el del planetario. encima no hacia cremas catalanas para comer. una mierdet

  • 1/5 It's not me It's my p. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) It is understood that the Covid reduces capacity to see the short in the planetarium and that we are unable to enter. It is understood that the things in the exhibition that are interactive type are unused and a little bland. But for what I give it a point, it is not for this, it is for having turtles, lizards, fish, spiders, snakes ... in a space SO SO small, that even the children have felt sorry for them. Moorish turtle (protected species) in such a small space, without seeing the sunlight and in those conditions? There is no association that denounces this? The water turtles have broken my heart, fighting tirelessly to get out of a glass cage in which they hardly fit. It's a shame, I will never recommend it. (Original) Se entiende que por el Covid reduzcan aforo para ver el corto en el planetario y que nos quedemos sin poder entrar. Se entiende que las cosas de la exposición que son tipo interactivas estén sin utilizar y sea un poco soso. Pero por lo que le doy un punto no es por esto, es por tener a las tortugas, lagartos, peces, arañas, serpiente... en un espacio TAN TAN reducido, que hasta a los niños les ha dado pena. Tortuga mora (especie protegida) en un espacio tan pequeño, sin ver la luz del sol y en esas condiciones? No hay ninguna asociación que denuncie ésto? Las tortugas de agua me han partido el corazón, luchando incansablemente por salir de una jaula de cristal en la que casi no caben. Es una vergüenza, no lo recomendaré nunca.

  • 4/5 Rafa Villegas A. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Very close to the old artillery barracks for a tour along the banks of the Segura River. In the square there is a proportional recreation of the solar system. In an old water tank with many water-based games for children. Thematic and interactive exhibitions. The best planetarium, projections on a dome with personalized explanations. Not bad but the schedule is not very flexible (Original) Muy próximo al antiguo cuartel de artillería por un recorrido por la ribera del río Segura. En la plaza hay una recreación proporcional del sistema solar. En un antiguo depósito de agua con muchos juegos basados en el agua para niños. Exposiciones temáticas e interactivas. Lo mejor el planetario, proyecciones sobre una cúpula con explicaciones personalizadas. No está mal pero el horario no es muy flexible

    Good and cheap! Everything is in Spanish though the host of the star some did try and include us in the show by getting our boy to tell everyone the plants in English.

  • 3/5 Susana S. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) It is a place to investigate with water in all its variants. But due to the current situation, you cannot do "experiments" and you cannot interact. It's a shame. (Original) Es un sitio donde investigar con el agua en todas sus variantes. Pero por la situación actual no se pueden hacer "experimentos" y no se puede interactuar. Es una pena.

  • 5/5 Andrew P. 1 year ago on Google
    My two year old had so much fun. We spent 2 hours in the sala infantil and then found a surprising amount of fun things to do in the main hall. I think children up to 7 would be enchanted by this place.

  • 5/5 Javier S. 5 years ago on Google
    There is an area for young kids up to 6-7 years old where they can experience by themselves that is great. On top there is also a planetarium that is quite convenient. On Fridays the show is also for the youngest. Rest of Museum is perfect for 10-15 years old children that are studying physics. Really well managed. Not so big though so it makes a perfect morning in a warm Murcia.

  • 5/5 dani c. 5 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) My 3-year-old kid had a great time, very interactive. It has a water play area, another without water. And the rest of the museum is full of interactive exhibitors. (Original) Mi cría de 3 años se lo pasó pipa, muy interactivo. Tiene zona de juegos de agua, otro sin agua. Y el resto del museo está repleto de expositores interactivos.

  • 4/5 Dan M. 5 years ago on Google
    Perfect for a rainy day or if you just want to kill a bit of time during the day. Doesn't take all day and the kids enjoyed it.

  • 4/5 Jakob L. 5 years ago on Google
    Worth a visit, especially with kids in school age. Basically everything you need to know about water and how important it is for the region Murcia.

  • 5/5 Susan G. 5 years ago on Google
    Absolutely fab find, kids (7, 5, 3) loved it and it was €6 for the five of us! Would visit again.

  • 5/5 parsley T. 6 years ago on Google
    Interactive science Museum. At first my 12 year old daughter didn't want to go, but once she went, she loved it.

  • 5/5 Keri P. 1 year ago on Google
    A really lovely, child friendly museum

  • 5/5 Conner R. 1 year ago on Google
    Absolutely fantastic day out for the little ones fully enjoyed by them and myself!!! Cheap day out €1.50 each and lots of Interesting things to see and do.

  • 5/5 Anita G. 10 months ago on Google
    This seems to be a bit of a hidden gem. There was barely anyone else in the museum except a large school group that were on the way out when we arrived. It cost us €4 in total to enter the museum and it was well worth it. The children's discovery room was perfect for our two, aged 4 and 1.5. There is a flowing water table with heaps of different toys, and then another area with science and construction toys. The temporary exhibition at the moment is transparent animals, which was really interesting. The planetarium didn't appear to be open but the water hall was very interesting and engaging for children and adults. QR codes on the exhibits bring you to audio and text translations into English. We spent 3 hours in the museum and came out at siesta time. There's a small playground directly outside and lots of eateries nearby.

  • 5/5 Santiago B. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Always, without exception, it is worth visiting. They have very interesting exhibitions, workshops, a planetarium ... They change them every so often, so you will not always see the same thing on each visit. Very professional. Even the architecture of the building has great utility and history. Highly recommended. (Original) Siempre, sin excepción, merece la pena visitarlo. Tienen exposiciones harto interesantes, talleres, planetario... Las van cambiando cada poco tiempo, por lo que no verás siempre lo mismo en cada visita. Muy profesionales. Hasta la arquitectura del edificio tiene una gran utilidad e historia. Muy recomendable.

  • 5/5 Berenice Noguera T. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) A small but well organized museum. The "experiments" are mostly interactive with a short scientific explanation alongside. It delights the children. Because you are small you can see everything with the child without getting bored. It is divided into 4 parts: permanent exhibition room, temporary exhibition, an interactive area with animals and water for the little ones and the planetarium. I suggest you set aside a couple of hours to enjoy the space + some time to watch some display of the planetarium. It pays from 3 years (1 euro) and adult 1,50. A good program for children and adults. (Original) Um museo pequeno porém bem organizado. As “experiências” são em sua maioria interativas com uma pequena explicação científica ao lado. Isso encanta as crianças. Por ser pequeno você consegue ver tudo com a criança sem que ela fique entediada. Se divide em 4 partes: sala de exposição permanente, exposição temporária, um área interativa com animas e água para os pequenos e o planetário. Sugiro reservar umas 2h para aproveitar o espaço + um tempo para assistir alguma exibição do planetário. Paga a partir de 3 anos (1 euro) e adulto 1,50. Um bom programa para crianças e adultos.

  • 5/5 Natalia L. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) I loved! A curious place to have a good time especially with children. And if you don't have them, it's also interesting! The planetarium is small but it is enough to enjoy the effects and wonders of the sky, also with a good explanation. I recommend adventurers to all! :) (Original) Me encantó! Un curioso sitio para pasarlo bien especialmente con niños. Y si no los tienes también es interesante! El planetario es pequeño pero es suficiente para disfrutar de los efectos y maravillas del cielo, además con una buena explicación acompañada. ¡Recomiendo a todos aventureros! :)

  • 5/5 Jc 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) I loved it and enjoyed it as a kid. It's wide, with lots of things for kids to experience. Worth repeating. I was surprised how cheap it was, I hope it stays that way the next time I go. (Original) Me encantó y lo disfrute como un crio. Es amplio, con un montón de cosas para que los crios experimenten. Digno de volverlo a repetir. Me sorprendió lo barato que fue, espero que siga así la próxima vez que vaya.

  • 5/5 mariano pina f. 3 years ago on Google

Great choice (Original) Sitio espectacular para ir con niños, además gratuito el Ayto debería tener más lugares así. Especial para aprender y divertirse a la vez. Gran elección

  • 5/5 Luis da S. 3 years ago on Google

    (Translated by Google) A DISASTER OF MANAGEMENT. This is the fifth time we tried to visit it without success, we move from Lorca) they never have tickets and cannot be booked online or by phone.

  • 3/5 Ma José F. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) In spite of not being a science museum as spectacular as that of other cities such as Madrid, Valencia or Granada, it has very interesting proposals, both in its activities and temporary exhibitions, as well as in the services and permanent collection. Especially recommended is the "Discover and Imagine" room where the youngest children spend their time playing with the water. The main criticism I make is that there is no possibility of advance purchase or online of tickets for the workshops or for the planetarium. The only way is to queue and, frequently, making the queue is not a guarantee to get in. It seems like something from another era. (Original) A pesar de no ser un museo de ciencia tan espectacular como el de otras ciudades como Madrid, Valencia o Granada, tiene propuestas muy interesantes, tanto en sus actividades y exposiciones temporales, como en los servicios y colección permanente. Especialmente recomendable la sala "Descubre e Imagina" donde los niños y niñas más pequeñas se lo pasan pipa jugando con el agua. La principal crítica que le hago es que no haya posibilidad de compra anticipada o por internet de entradas para los talleres o para el planetario. La única forma es hacer cola y, con frecuencia, hacer la cola no es garantía para conseguir entrar. Parece algo de otra época.

I hope that politicians take note and do not keep one or the other based on profitability. (Original) Me gustaría que hubiese en Murcia más sitios y museos tan pedagógicos como este. Espero que tomen nota los políticos y no mantengan unos u otros en función de la rentabilidad.

  • 5/5 Ros 5 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Ideal to spend time with children for a ridiculous price. All well preserved and complemented by the explanations of the staff. It is worth the visit. Very undervalued perhaps due to lack of publicity. It would be great to be able to expand it and increase the offer, temporary exhibitions, restoration, etc. (Original) Ideal para pasar un rato con los niños por un precio irrisorio. Todo bien conservado y complementado con las explicaciones del personal. Merece la pena la visita. Muy infravalorado quizá por falta de publicidad. Sería genial poder ampliarlo y aumentar la oferta, exposiciones temporales, restauración, etc.
