Busan National Science Museum

The Busan National Science Museum is a science museum in Gijang-gun with exhibitions about vehicles, aerospace technology, and nuclear energy spread across several themed spaces. The collections fill different building areas and offer extensive information and hands-on demonstrations of these technological fields.

The museum opened in December 2015 and was created to strengthen scientific education in the Busan, Ulsan, and Gyeongsangnam-do region. This establishment gave the area a modern center for science learning and development.

The museum shows how science shapes everyday life and invites visitors to experiment and discover things themselves. This hands-on approach makes technical ideas understandable and relevant for people of all ages.

The museum is located in Gijang-gun and opens from Tuesday to Sunday with different admission costs for various age groups. Visitors should allow enough time to explore the different exhibitions at a comfortable pace.

The facility includes an astronomical observatory where visitors can operate telescopes and observe the sky themselves. A special observation hall makes overnight camping sessions possible for more intensive stargazing.
