National Science Centre, Pusat Sains Negara in Kuala Lumpur

A great outing for kids and adults alike is the National Science Centre in Bukit Kiara.
A magnificent glass domed building, with dinosaur shaped plants outside, a swimming pool area and lots of fun scientific tangibles inside. Not known to many but there is also a mini aquarium. Admission price for adults is 6rm as of April 2012. More information can be found here:
