When was the last time you went to a museum and were permitted to pick up the exhibits, scratch around at the clay or the bronze and really get a feel of the period? When was the last time you went to an aquarium and were able to dive right into one of the tanks? And when was the last time you were invited to rout a village, bloody the nose of a peasant or create a skirmish on the battlements at Edinburgh Castle? You were'nt. Then they’re just not ‘hands-on’.
One of the most popularly visited ‘hands-on’ discovery centres in England, Techniquest is a science centre designed to engage people of all ages in science through interactive exhibits, puzzles and live demonstrations.
As well as 160 hands-on exhibits, the centre plays host a unique programme of special events for families and leisure groups including fascinating shows in the Science Theatre, absorbing tours of the universe in the Planetarium and a chance for visitors to experiment in the Laboratory and Discovery Room.
Adult admission: £6.75 (as of Nov' 2004)
