Visited August 2025 I didn’t like that there is no place for eating in the museum except for the restaurant. As a Muslim, I couldn’t use the restaurant and bought food that I can eat from the supermarket. I was shocked that there were signs at the rest area that don’t allow eating there. I had to take our bento boxes and eat standing outside the building which was not convenient. I hope they can change this or at least provide Muslim and English friendly meals at the restaurant. The museum itself is OK and the kids will enjoy a lot. There is one big exhibition hall with several scientific experiments and a planetarium show which was good. When you book tickets through the machine, there is no English option so please be careful that there are cheaper prices for Otsu city residents and slightly higher prices for non-residents. For example, the permanent exhibition is for 150 for adult residents of Otsu city and 200 yen for non residents. The planetarium show is popular, it was almost full although we went on a weekday. The website mentioned the 2 p.m. show is from elementary school but they actually let younger kids to enter Toilets are OK with some units having a wash let but not all.

●料金が大人も小学生も100円という素晴しさ！ ●プラネタリウムも大人400円、学生200円、幼児無料のハッピープライス ●土日祝日だけの特典 →『わくわくサイエンス』という実験教室や工作が先着順で無料でできる体験学習もあり、THEサイエンスラボのようなエリアは科学好きキッズ達のワクワクを加速させます。 ●レストラン 良い意味での『思ってたんと違う…』 →限定数の日替わりランチ&お子様ランチ 品数と、内容のバランスと、味と、メインおかずのボリュームが良く、『本当にこのお値段でこんなに美味しくていいんですか!?ありがとうございます!!』って気分になりました。 →手を怪我をして行った子どもが頼んた丼メニューに食べにくいだろうと箸だけでなくスプーンとフォークも後から持ってきてくださったり『お大事に』と店員さんの優しい声かけと気配りがありがたかったです。 →しっかりと店内で調理してるので、例えばカツ丼はしっかりと揚げたてサクサクのカツに、出来たて新鮮な卵でとろふわの玉子が炊きたてごはんに絡まりたいへんおいしゅうございました。（上記の子どもの感想）

Great place for a rainy day! The museum is on the second floor. Tickets are very cheap. Check ahead for the planetarium times - they sold out fast. Parking was free, though hard to find since it was so busy on a Sunday.

The displays are only in Japanese, but it has two floors of interactive activities so any kid (despite language) would have fun. There’s also a “kids tunnel” area- essentially a play area for 3 and under. It was perfect for our 1 year old to get energy out and it was...

I will not know because it was closed. Made a planned day trip out of going to the science museum. Google hours said it was open, the website also said it was open, nothing anywhere indicated that it was closed. Parking was non-existent. The only notice it had was that it was closed for the day (Sunday). Ended up spending the rest of the day at a...
