    Has every scientific illusions you can ever think of. from fossils to games puzzles instruments and my ultimate favourite it has a Mirror Maze, which is really fun to play and find your way out. Also has mechanics screens of games a pond area and many more fun adventures you can ever think of. It is both adventurous and educational in a small package.

    I am giving a 4 because the numver of students helping there were really trying their best. It is interesting to see the various models on display and how they work. My grandchildren loved it. Unfortunately quite a few of the exhibits were not functional and there were not enough students to assist everyone. Needs more publicity. Worthwhile visiting. Thank you

    We took our grandson to feel, touch and experience many things. I must admit, we all enjoyed it very much and it is a very interesting place to broaden your knowledge about a variety of things. Can recommend it for young and old. 👍🤠

    Great little place full of cool activities. I went with my 12 and 10 year old children and we stayed over 2 hours. The only difficulty that we had is that to enter this place, you must enter the university and since we’re not students, the entrance has to be done through the main entrance and we had parked by the entrance that was closest to Sci-Enza, which means we had to walk for around 20 minutes to finally reach the destination. So if you’re general public, like us, park by the main entrance! We are eager to go back, especially because a couple of cool exhibits were closed due to repairs: the mirror maze and shadow room.

    What an awesome place for young and old,well worth a visit

  • 5/5 Selorm A. 5 years ago on Google
    This place was not only interesting but also very enlightening as the Centre has been equipped with lots of scientific exhibitions to demonstrate some of the real practical applications of science not only to learners but also undergraduate and Postgraduate students as well. For learners, I strongly believe it will whet their appetite to yearn to go into the studies of science with these practical demonstrations. I recommend basic school authorities to take advantage of the opening hours to bring learners to visit the facility, since it will make them develop strong affections for the study of science.

    Really fun place to visit with plenty of weird and wonderful things to do, all with interesting science going on right in front of you. The mirror maze was great fun and solving some of the various puzzles there also kept me busy for quite a while. A visit here is highly recommendable!
