Science is in our daily lives: Kaohsiung Science and Technology Museum’s educational and entertaining space

Kaohsiung is not only a city where a port city and culture meet, but also has a temple of science and technology - the National Science and Technology Museum (abbreviated as the Science and Technology Museum). This museum is located in Sanmin District and covers an area of ​​about 19 hectares. It is the first applied science museum in Taiwan and the largest in Asia (the world's second only to the Paris Science and Industry Museum in France)   . It is not only an exhibition hall that displays the history of science, but also a science playground where children and adults can participate and understand deeply. 🏛️ History and positioning: Pioneer of applied science • Background of birth: In 1979, the Executive Yuan included the museum in national construction, and preparations began in 1986. It was officially opened to the public in November 1997, with the establishment of the South Hall and the North Hall, as well as the outdoor park, forming a complete scientific and cultural education system (). • Mission positioning: Compared with the natural science museum, which focuses on natural phenomena, the Science and Technology Museum focuses on "applied science", analyzing how technology is connected with daily life, industrial development, and sustainable society, and has both educational and leisure roles (). 🏗️ Space design: geometric architecture and green landscape The museum building is mainly geometric, integrating triangles, rectangles and circles. The exhibition halls are connected by sky bridges, which present a futuristic and smooth flow. The outdoor park is like a science park - planted with about 2,000 trees, equipped with fountains, amphitheaters and lawns, it is an oasis in the city. 🔬 Exhibition area highlights: a wonderful journey of learning and interaction The museum is divided into the North Hall and the South Hall, each with its own characteristics: ▶️ North Hall • Permanent exhibition hall: covers themes such as the Transportation Dream Hall (experience driving, flying, driving), the Space Exploration Hall (simulating space environment), and the Mechanical Optoelectronics Hall. • Cultural Science Hall: From ancient technology (gunpowder, papermaking, ceramics) to modern telecommunications history, it gradually presents the evolution of scientific and technological civilization. • 3D cinema, immersive theater: play themes such as space and deep-sea exploration to enhance knowledge empathy. • The treasure of the museum: the first full-size wooden model of the "Jingguo" fighter jet made in Taiwan, symbolizing the confidence in craftsmanship and engineering . • Maker Workshop and Green Energy Life Museum: DIY, robots, sustainable energy and other construction experience spaces to enhance the fun of family participation. ▶️ South Hall • Science Library and Coffee Station: An elegant place suitable for parents and children to read and socialize. • Multi-purpose Hall and Seminar Classroom: Provide educational opportunities such as lectures, courses, and corporate visits. • Lohas Energy Saving House (2009): Experimental energy-saving housing, demonstrating the concept of green building . 👨👩👧👦 Family and Education Interaction: An Experience of Education The design of the Science and Engineering Museum encourages parents and children to travel together and learn through fun: • Children's Science Park: Through game levels, deepen the understanding of scientific principles . • Transportation Dream Hall: Let children experience the fun of driving and flying, and feel the freedom brought by technology. • Interactive Exhibition: Telecommunications History Experience, DIY Maker, Green Energy Interactive Wall, etc., all ages can leave their footprints of exploration. • Environmental Education Course: Provide sustainable development and science theme courses for school or parent-child groups to book (). The National Science and Technology Museum is not only an exhibition hall, but also a place to integrate technology into life and stimulate interest. Whether you are a science fan, a parent-child family, or an adult interested in sustainable technology, this is a science park that surprises people and takes steps to practice. #5月好去处2025
