Guangdong Science Center

Guangdong Science Center, Educational science museum in Guangzhou, China

The Guangdong Science Center stands at the west end of Guangzhou Higher Education Mega Center on Xiaoguwei Island, Panyu District. Its building, chosen in a 2004 international competition from the "Science and Technology Aircraft Carrier" design by the Central-South Architectural Design Institute, covers 137,500 square metres and holds 13 permanent theme halls plus four science cinemas.

The museum opened in 2008 following a five-year construction period. This development created a major scientific institution dedicated to public education in science and technology.

The exhibition spaces present scientific concepts through hands-on displays and demonstrations available in Chinese and English. Visitors can directly experience how science applies to everyday life.

The permanent exhibition halls and the four science cinemas open separately, and the center closes on Mondays except on statutory holidays. Entry to the grounds stops 30 minutes before closing, and cinema tickets are checked five minutes before each screening. Buses 35, 801 and Panyu 202 stop at the University Town (Science Center) terminus near the paid car park northeast of the building.

In 2018 Guinness World Records certified the center as the largest science center/science museum, with an actual indoor area of 126,514.58 square metres. It was the first Chinese science museum to receive such certification, listed in the "Proud China" section of the Guinness Book of Records.
