Full description
Pavilhão do Conhecimento - Ciência Viva is a contemporary science museum built around interactive exhibits, experiments, workshops and play areas for kids. Visitors press buttons, trigger reactions and work through hands-on displays, which makes it especially popular with families.
Reviewers call it one of the best interactive science museums they have visited, with plenty for all ages and helpful staff, though it is often busy with school-age children and can get loud. Plan around two hours for a comfortable visit; it works well as a rainy-day or midday activity.

Reviews
This place is very interesting, educational, and popular. I recommend coming here with children; they will love pressing buttons and seeing the reactions. It would be great if it appears in museum a dark room with reflective items and glow-in-the-dark paint. This would help children understand how they can't be seen…
