Bando Kobe Science Museum

3.5

A science museum with a domed, rooftop astronomical observatory located a three-minute walk from Minami Koen Station on the Kobe New Transit Port-liner Line. Through exhibits that involve not just looking but getting hands on, even adults can have fun here while learning about science. The museum's planetarium, the only one in Kobe City, screens special shows on Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays, and national holidays. The planetarium's original programs are also well-reviewed. The museum's exhibition rooms are filled with appropriately themed, interactive exhibits and experiment shows are held at the museum at set times each day. The museum's science library contains some 20 thousand volumes on space and science.
