Reviews
Make sure you have a whole day for this one!! My husband and our son just couldn't have enough of this place. Lots of things to do and experience. You can easily spend a whole day there, especially for kids.
Our family of four, including two girls aged 8 and 12, thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Petrosains. We were surprised at the quality of the exhibits and the many hands on activities, including many where the staff demonstrate and encourage participation. The staff were fantastic, There are several optional activities for an additional fee - but these are very reasonably priced at no more than RM3. Otherwise the entry fee is comparatively low and represents excellent value for money. Allow time to properly explore all of the exhibits and you will not leave disappointed.
This was not even on our list of things to do/see. We came across it while we were in the Suria KLCC and we enjoyed our visit to this attraction.The entry fee is very modest and when compared with the Aquaria, this is a far better bet in terms of fun.What makes this attraction good is the presence of a large number of 'interactive/hands-on' activities. Our 7 year old daughter simply could not get enough of this experience.The 'hurricane booth' is interesting and the wind generated was strong enough to knock my glasses off and out the booth.There are a number of 'play and learn' kind of activities which keeps kids occupied.It must be pointed out that the attraction is dated but the fun nature of the activities makes up for this.
