An interactive science centre on level 4 of the Suria KLCC mall at the foot of the Petronas Twin Towers. Opened in 1999 with backing from oil company Petronas, it starts with a dark-ride journey through petroleum, space and the age of dinosaurs. Dozens of hands-on zones follow: Formula 1 simulators, a volcano lab, a 3D theatre and a model oil platform. A great plan for a hot or rainy day, especially for families with children.
