📍Taipei Astronomical Science Education Center (Shilin Astronomical Museum)
This is absolutely a place where you can spend the whole day. Affordable tickets, fully indoor, and air-conditioned—a perfect rainy day backup spot where you can also gain new knowledge!
Right at the entrance, you'll see a long queue for the Cosmic Adventure Train (additional ticket required, General $70/Discount $35). Be prepared for the crowds, especially on weekends~ XD
This time, we purchased a combo ticket for the Science Education Center and the Astronomical Museum on Trip.com. We visited the Science Education Center first and then headed to the Astronomical Museum. Inside, we explored lunar exploration, space knowledge, planetary orbits, the relative movements of the Sun, Earth, and Moon, the reasons for polar day and night, Earth's seasonal changes, and more. It was truly enriching.
On the 2nd floor, you can capture the most beautiful views of the Milky Way and the Solar System. There's also a children's space play area (with specific opening/playtime restrictions).
What's special is the free special exhibition before entering the ticketed area: 2025 "Encounter Aurora – A Guide to Chasing the Northern Lights" Exhibition Dates: 2025/4/2 to 10/12. If you can't travel to see the aurora in person, this is a great alternative to enjoy and take photos while learning all about the aurora!
