★★★★★a month agoFor over 4 decades, the Singapore Science Centre has been the fixture of our country's audacious foray into science & technology, centred right at the heart of Jurong East. This place held so many memories for me & for Primary School students who grew up in the 2000s & I am so glad the old whismical installations of the Kinetic Garden were retained. Every perimeter of the Centre is dedicated to fun exhilarating exhibits & fascinating trivia guests can take home. 40 years forward, SSC is not stopping in their relentless mission to deliver wonder for families.
