Pushpa Gujral Science City
Pushpa Gujral Science City is a large science center in Kapurthala featuring many exhibits and activities for visitors of all ages. The site includes outdoor spaces with open lawns and trees, as well as multiple buildings with interactive displays, theaters, and demonstration areas covering topics like space, technology, and the environment.

The site features a Dinosaur Park with models of animals from different prehistoric periods, showing how land animals evolved over millions of years. Visitors can see the sizes and shapes of dinosaurs and learn about their habitats and extinction events.
