Interactive science centre with indoor and outdoor galleries for children of all ages including toddlers. Entry fees are among the lowest of any Malaysian science attraction.
đ Family Action Verdict
Best for families with curious primary school children who respond to hands-on learning. The low entry cost makes this an easy yes when a quarter of the exhibits are broken - the working ones deliver solid educational value. Toddlers can participate in the simpler tactile displays.

âVery affordable entrance tickets. Fascinating exhibition and friendly staffs. But there is a very big issue need the authority to pay attention and take action. Most of the gadgets buttons and handles are smelly and full of all kinds of germs and bacteria. I strongly suggest that all visitors bring sanitizer to sanitize all the buttons and handers before used.â

âOne of the wonderful interesting places for curious kids to explore and spend their time with so many different gadgets and gizmos displayed at the center. Located at a quite remote area near Gunung Keriang, people will never know its existence as captivating at all. However the responsible organisers make such great effort to promote this place and we can see the results how people flock over to this place every holiday. Just hope they will continue with the promotion and most of all, FIX the broken science displays that only appear with out-of-order cards. It's a great disappointment for them not to be able to try and discover what those broken displays can do.â

Overview
National Science Centre Northern Region sits about 12km from Alor Setar near Gunung Keriang and covers multiple themed science galleries. The interactive format engages children who can spend one to two hours working through exhibits. Entry is heavily subsidised. Hygiene on frequently touched buttons and handles is a genuine concern raised by multiple reviewers - bring hand sanitiser. Some exhibits have been out of order for extended periods.
