Good place to bring kids here. There are 2 kind of tickets: exhibition and movie. The exhibition ticket price is around 23 SAR/person but the kids could get free entry. Don't forget to go to the second floor.. many interesting things there however yap some spot need maintenance seriously

The Imax cinema was a nice experience and reasonably priced and the mini museum downstairs was interesting.

The showrooms upstairs were quite disappointing though. The aquarium section was good and somewhat maintained but unfortunately the other sections are not at all. Many of the activities are broken and not operational which is a real shame because this place has a lot of potential. Also there aren't any staff upstairs to supervise the activities or explain how to use them to visitors. Other than the Imax cinema, I wouldn't recommend that anyone goes here.

On Average each section requires 30min minimum plus IMAX.

A very interesting place for sure! Although disappointed that many of the displays don’t work :( there is also potential for a lot of improvement in terms of the facilities and overall quality of the experience.

Majority of the equipments, test gadgets need to be repaired. Few pics attached. Was entertaining but mood spoiled due to these faulty devices. Imax was too good, enjoyed The Oceans Documentary.
Overall was good.

Excellent and very informative place to visit with family and especially kids. The kids really enjoyed and learned a lot.
It has five halls
1. The world of the seas has aquariums full of different marine creatures.
2. The biology hall that displays the organs of the human body and the mechanism of work of each organs and human system.
3. A hall for living organisms and plants,
4. A hall for astronomy, space and earth sciences
5. This hall contains different technology and how things work. It also contains games suitable for children, especially young children 5 years and under.

The ticket for adults is 24 riyals and for children over 3 years old is 17.5 riyals.
Tickets for groups of 5 people or more are 17.5 riyals per person. Free for elderly and special needs people with kids of 3 and less years,thanks to the front desk staff.
We spent a good 4-5 hours at this place and the kids were really exhausted but were happy.

Must visit, highly recommend it.
