The dinosaurs section alone is worth the price of admission... not that it's pricey anyway. There are just so much to see here. Curious parents and kids can get lost for hours in this huge museum...

One of the coolest museum I have visited. Totally worth the ticket price and the time. I'd highly suggest to allocate an entire day (if not 2 days) to visit the place. Abundance of exhibitions to see with so many histories and stories to read and learn. An incredibly educational place for children and is very suitable for a family visit. I spent 4 hours in the science exhibition only, SO huge !

If you want to learn or are interested in science. This is a great place to visit especially with children. The place was huge and there are so many exhibition halls to visit. However, not all displays have a translation so be prepared with either a google translate app or a QR scanner (for some exhibits). Overall I think its worth a visit. Entrance fee is reasonable considering how many halls you get to view.

A fruitful and pleasant visit to the museum. Different exhibition halls show a wide range of displays from life and death to historic relics. The special exhibition hall showing the coffee history which includes a lot of machines which are rarely seen in Asia. The collection is a must see and worth much more than the 100NTD entrance fee.

Although they really need to update many exhibits, I always enjoy my trips here. I spotted a flying pig that was put up by some hilarious employee at some point, I would really love to know the story behind it!!! So if anyone knows something please let us know!

This is a very well thought of and maintained museum. It is also extremely huge. Many concurrent exhibitions going on. Currently there is a huge coffee machine (from roasting to brewing) going on. Very educational and fun! It is HUGE! Definitely can spend 1 to 2 days there. We only had 4 hours and it was a fun 4 hours! Suggest to buy the combined exhibitions ticket. One ticket can cover all the multiple exhibitions.
