Gujarat Science City, Science center in Hebatpur, Ahmedabad, India
Gujarat Science City is a science center in Hebatpur, Ahmedabad, that encompasses several buildings with exhibitions and interactive displays on topics from biotechnology to space exploration. The grounds extend over wide open areas with separate pavilions for robotics, renewable energy, and human anatomy.
The facility opened in May 2001 as part of an initiative to advance technological education in the Gujarat region. Later expansions added new galleries and an energy park focused on hands-on demonstrations.
The complex hosts a dome theater that screens scientific films and a zone for temporary exhibitions on current research topics. School groups often use small workshops there to build simple experiments and discuss findings with trained educators.
The facility offers guided tours in several languages, and visitors may need a few hours to see all main areas. Plan time for the interactive stations, as hands-on learning takes priority.
The Energy Park section demonstrates various forms of renewable power generation through functional models and experimental stations for hands-on learning experiences. Visitors can see wind turbines, solar panels, and other systems up close and understand how they produce energy.
