National Science Museum in Gwacheon, near Seoul _ A precious and huge space where you can easily and enjoyably understand and experience science, with intuitive and diverse experiences. (A complete summary of a 6-year-old’s visit, location, reservation method, tips, things to prepare for elementary school and above, recommended viewing courses, parking tips, prices, restaurants, etc.)
🚀Close to Seoul, indoors so it doesn’t matter what season, cheap, and full of fun things to do!! Gwacheon National Science Museum! It’s already famous as a great place to go with kids. I’m posting a review so that you can use the Gwacheon National Science Museum more easily 🙂
💛 Korea has many uniquely delicate, clean, and convenient spaces. There are clean and comfortable spaces all over the country that you can’t find anywhere else in the world. If you’re planning a trip to Korea, I highly recommend this huge and unique place with a science theme. If you’re traveling with children, I highly recommend visiting this place.
💖 Before introducing the information, it’s a place where even 6-year-olds can enjoy themselves all day long. It’s even better because it’s indoors so you can enjoy it regardless of the season, and of course, my dad said his legs hurt because of the overwhelming scale^^; but the kids didn’t get tired and visited almost all the themes.
Also, it’s important for elementary school and above to see advanced science, but it’s essentially why Korea became a science powerhouse!! I strongly recommend visiting the Korean Science Civilization Museum where you can get a glimpse of the wisdom of our ancestors.
