I loved it. Although it is noted that the passage of time and users have been wearing away part of the structures of the attractions that are located abroad. They should renovate the infrastructure on the outside a little, since it would be a good way to renovate outdoor activities (a little more investment for a pleasant recreation for visitors) It is recommended to go during the week, thus avoiding the influx of people . And they can enjoy the place and the tour with much more calm and without so many crowds of people. The garden at the bottom was the most refreshing and entertaining of the museum, the sound of the small waterfall captivates the most observant and discreet, recreating an ecological trail atmosphere. A good place to distract yourself from the weekdays and create awareness about water and its use. The museum has wheelchairs for people who need it ... for that very good part. And every certain time the exhibitions change...

That one is very wierd. We felt there was almost nothing to see except in a condensed area under the big empty glassed room. Other then that, there is a bubble room, a pretty empty but atmospheric basement, an equally empty outdoor area for kids and a separate shack on ecology.

So why 5 stars. Well first of all the kids (3 and 6) loved it, A LOT. But also, for the cost and the view alone its probably worth it. And honestly, they're probably still building and constructing the thing (summer 2018).

Oh, and there a nice trail also.

I'd...

nos gusta mucho el Yaku, no sólo nos reciben con amabilidad si no que además es un lugar de esparcimiento muy natural dentro de la ciudad, una suerte de ''Oasis'' dentro del caos de concreto, varias de las iglesias, conventos, edificios históricos y administrativos, se pueden ver desde allí, ya que su ubicación en las Lomas del Placer un barrio tradicional de Quito y tras las adecuaciones de antiguas instalaciones utilizadas en antaño para la potabilizacion del agua para Quito, permiten disfrutar del paisaje de la urbe hasta donde se pierde la vista tanto al sur como al norte de la bella ciudad. Cuenta con un parqueadero de pago al cual se ingresa por el sector de San Roque, un ascensor permite llegar desde el parqueadero hasta el ingreso del Museo, con facilidades para personas con movilidad limitada incluso cuenta con información para no videntes y mucha información interesante, sobre ecología, datos curiosos sobre el agua y la relación con el hombre entre otros temas. Especialmente diseñado para enseñar a la ciudadanía sobre el valor del recurso hídrico, en Yaku hay varias Salas en las cuál es los visitantes interactúan y descubren un mundo que todos damos por hecho. Cuenta con área de comidas y servicios sanitarios no puedo decir que estos dos últimos sean de primera categoría y seguramente ya la administración lo sabrá, pero al menos cuenta con el servicio.

Currently some sections are under construction. Tickets were discounted. Overall Museum is nice and has some cute places. Not a necessary visit, but cool and inexpensive. If you've been to any type of science museum, then you probably won't be overwhelmed. This place does have really nice views of the city and Panecillo which are worth the visit. Staff is friendly. This could be fun with kids. Bubble room is very fun.
