Japan's first museum for children

Opened in 1980, this is Japan's first museum for children, and we hope that children's spirits of science and culture will grow, and they can play freely and have various experiences while having fun. In addition, the planetarium dynamically reproduces the sparkling constellations and the infinitely expanding universe in a dome with a diameter of 20 m. In addition, we also hold events such as science / creative classes, science shows, and fun workshops, mainly on weekends.
