The Nanjing Science and Technology Museum (南京科技馆) near the Yangtze River is a hands-on science centre with exhibits on physics, earth science, space exploration, and information technology. It is primarily designed for children and school groups but has enough substance for adults interested in Chinese science education.
The museum includes a planetarium and an IMAX-style dome theatre. It is located in Jiangbei New Area on the north bank of the Yangtze, a newer part of the city that is accessible by metro. Good option for families or rainy days.
