Bangkok Planetarium (Science Center for Education)

For young astronomers, the Bangkok Planetarium is the place to be. On Children's Day, entry for kids is usually free (or extremely cheap for adults). They run special astronomy shows in the dome theater, projecting stars and galaxies onto the ceiling. Outside the dome, there are science experiments, robot demonstrations, and math games. It’s a great way to escape the midday sun while learning about the universe.

How to get there:

BTS Skytrain: Take the BTS to Ekkamai Station (Exit 2). It is a 2-minute walk from the station stairs.
