Visited The Mind Museum and had a great time exploring. The museum is modern, well-organized, and packed with interactive exhibits that make science fun and easy to understand for all ages. One of the highlights was the human evolution section, with detailed life-size figures and displays that walk you through how humans developed over time. There are also engaging exhibits on biology, space, physics, and technology that keep you curious as you move from gallery to gallery. We especially enjoyed a mirror-style exhibit that visually displays two individuals into one reflection -- a creative and fun way to explore perception and how the mind interprets images. The space is clean, air-conditioned, and easy to navigate, and the staff were friendly and helpful. It's a great stop if you're in the BGC area and looking for something educational, interactive, and family-friendly. Highly recommended for kids, teens, and adults alike. read more

The Mind Museum was a fun kid-centered oasis in the midst of the hustle and bustle of BGC. There was so much to do and learn. This would be a wonderful place to conduct a field trip. We went on a weekday and the place was pretty empty. We spent about 2.5 hours there and probably could have spent a couple more. We definitely recommend people to the Mind Museum. read more

Super informative museum! But dominated by kids. They advertised it as a museum for everyone, but most of the exhibits catered to school children. Although I did enjoy seeing fossils and learning more about space and the environment. I would recommend coming here during the week and at an off time. We came here during a peak time and it was miserably crowded. We had to wait a decent amount of time to fully absorb all the exhibits. The staff was hospitable to English speaking tourists. For me it's a one and done. I'll see other museums the next time I'm in Manila. read more

This was a very good museum to bring the kids and spend time educating them. The only trouble was prices and some exhibits were broken. Else it was a hit. The space exhibits were pretty good, although you can't top Griffith in LA. It does need a little work, but a good way to spend an afternoon in the hot Manila weather and out in time for happy hour! read more

It's an okay museum but it's a bit outdated and run down. There were several exhibits or activities not working. This place needs a lot of upkeep and fixes. I'm sure it can be back to its original glory if it was updated. read more

***Great interactive exhibits, got about 2 hrs. of interest out of my 7 and 3 yr kiddos, nice mix of history/technology/space*** Came here on Thursday afternoon with my family and it was not crowded at all. There is a Jollibee's close to the entrance in case you want to go for a small break/snack lol. My kids loved the hands-on exhibits, and enjoyed being able to learn while having fun. For the price it I definitely worth it. We are visiting from the US and although there are museums out that offer more, it comes with a higher price tag as well. Therefore I was content with the value here. The Outer Space section was a awesome, the earthquake simulator was equally as awesome, and the Life of a Pearl exhibit was enlightening. This was a nice contrast of learning during our stay in PH, compared to the other kiddo attractions here. read more

This is a place devoted strictly to the study of science, essentially the equivalent of science world back in Vancouver. Except at a much smaller scale, there are only two floors worth of exhibits and you'd see everything relatively quick. It is fun! But, not enough to last beyond an hour. Another thing that did bother me too, being that the earthquake exhibition had an operator who was one his phone mostly and didn't realize he was turning it on with people trying to GET OUT of the exhibit. That's an accident waiting to happen? read more

I love the Mind Museum! I never thought I would get to experience a museum like this in Manila. It's great for educational field trips, family outings, even dates! It targets people of all ages so it's a huge plus for me. Being in the field of science and education makes me a huge fan of this place. It's also convenient to go to in BGC where there are plenty of parking spaces and commuting is also not bad when you use the Fort Bus from Ayala. They have Cafe Scientifique sessions that are free and topics cover a lot of several fields with a touch of pop culture. They have discounted promo for students so don't forget to bring your ID when you visit :) My favorite spot inside is their space section with a mini-planetarium with 10 minute shows and exhibits of formation of stars, moon phases and the like. Watch out for their special exhibits! There was a time they showcased actual works of Leonardo da Vinci, and recently they have an outdoor exhibit of Marvel/DC/Star Wars collection items. I highly recommend to get the 3 hour pass (3 hours is enough time to go around), but if you plan to stay at the museum longer, get the whole day pass. read more

Every time I set my eyes on the Mind Museum, I thank God everybody got together to make this wonderful museum happen. We've needed a proper science museum for the longest time, and this is such a wonderful place to bring children to. I am a father of a wonderful little boy. I brought him here at Mind Museum for the first time, and I could practically see his head exploding from sheer joy. From the robots in the front to the giant T-Rex skeleton, from the interactive displays to simply the amount of science they've managed to cram into that small space (It IS small, di ba?), the Mind Museum is a fantastic, magical place. The best part is, I can bring my kid here again and again, and his experience will be much different the older and smarter he gets. And yes, I had a lot of fun trying out the displays for myself. Because why not?!? read more

The Mind Museum is a science museum in BGC. We recently went there with my wife's family. For 11 people, it cost us around 4000 ($80). 4 of the kids had public school IDs which saved about 50% off the admission. The museum is pretty small. That being said, it's very nice. There are 5 areas. Each one takes about 15 minutes to explore for kids (considering they don't stop and read everything). There is a small science show that takes about 5 or 10 mins. There is also a planetarium that cycles two shows that about 30 minutes each. Overall, I was impressed by the museum, especially considering the size. I've been to larger museums with higher budgets in the U.S. that weren't this nice. The kids all loved it. My favorite area was the Space area. Their ceiling has stars all over and it gives it a nice ambiance. If I was just judging the museum alone, I'd give it 4.5 stars. My two star markdown is due to added costs. There are two traveling exhibits outside that end up being about 75 pesos each. They are tiny! Then there is a park that is 100 pesos per head. It was totally empty. It's a shame to have a nice park and not at least include it in the general admission price. This museum is really setup to price out the locals. You literally have to be foreigner or rich by local standards to go. It's a shame because I feel like kids would really benefit from visiting. read more

This place is about 50% real science and 50% evolutionist propaganda being passed off as science. There are some neat exhibits the kids enjoyed. Most of the good science had to be read on their plaques, which my kids didn't take the time to do. They just went for the interactive exhibits. It's may be worth a trip, but I wouldn't go back. read more

The Mind Museum - "Science" is still baffled how life was created. Maybe God did it? - Museums Near Me - Taguig, NCR

For a science nerd like me, The Mind Museum is a mecca. The place has a lot of themes inside ranging from space to prehistoric to marine life to modern technology (and the list goes on). Not only do you get to see photos, statues or figures, and infographs but you also get to enjoy live demo from scientists. It's like going back to lectures back in grade school but more fun. What I also love about The Mind Museum is that you're allowed to snap photos that is usually not permitted at other museums. My most memorable moment here is when we were invited to an advance screening of Cosmos, a reboot space documentary by Seth McFarlane and originally hosted and created by Carl Sagan. Their audio-visual room has nice and comfortable seating that's way better than the ones in the theaters. They also have special schedules for other documentaries. It's always possible for me to go here because they have discounts for students like me (Php. 150.00) and is highly accessible because it's near Bonifacio High Street. read more

I'm a science nut, through and through. But I can never afford to go to places like this on my meager salary, so I thought going to the Mind Museum was just another pipe dream. I felt especially depressed when I missed their Da Vinci exhibit. I'm a big fan of Da Vinci, and missing the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to view his work up close was crushing. However, I did get a chance to see the rest of the Mind Museum when I got invited to a Rappler event that was held in one of the conference halls inside the Museum. The conference itself was lovely and very informative, but during the breaks in between, I walked the halls of the Mind Museum while pretending that I wasn't freaking out inside from all the cool stuff I encountered. Man, I wish Da Vinci was here. He'd love all these stuff. read more

Ever since I was a kid, I have always enjoyed Science museums, especially those that allow you to touch and interact with the exhibits on display. Whenever I go to another country, I almost always try to check out their Science museums. When The Mind Museum opened, I was thrilled and excited to check it out. For the first time in our country, we would finally have a legitimate Science museum. Given my experiences with a few international Science museums, The Mind Museum did not disappoint at all. I like how the museum is divided into sections and each area has quite a number of educational, informative and interactive displays. I brought my nephews and niece also with me and they, too, had a great time. Some activities were a bit difficult to understand, but they have roving employees (on segways) to assist you. They also have interesting shows that are worth going to, if you have the time. I thought that we wouldn't spend the entire 3 hours allotted time there, but I was wrong. My nephews and niece were even haggling for us to stay longer. Their outdoor playground was also a plus, especially for the kids. They also have special events or exhibits on weekends. Unfortunately for me, my schedule hasn't permitted me to attend them but I really do plan on going soon. One of their interesting events is their Science Quiz Night, which I hope to attend someday. I would definitely come back here again, and maybe take more of my nephews/nieces with me. It's a much better option than bringing them to the cinemas or the arcade. I do hope, however, that they would expand their museum and add more sections in the future. read more

I have an Unlimited Science Pass and I used it for the second time today. While my first time going to the Mind Museum was lovely, today was not. The children, who I'm assuming are students, wearing green, red, orange, etc. were incredibly rude. They were: going into the attractions which they CANNOT enter, slapping the overhead attractions (the animals), very, very loud, etc. I know the Mind Museum is absolutely amazing, but today, June 22, 2019, was a terrible day to visit. I love Mind Museum and I would like to keep using my Unlimited Science Pass, but the students today were so unbearable I had to leave. read more

One of its kind. Like the 3 hr block to reduced crowd. Learn many thing but please increase brightness in the dome theatre it was very hard to see. Love the free video games esp the tennis one. read more

I'm no science enthusiast but I can totally say that I enjoyed visiting this museum. Even from the outside, it already looks like a futuristic architecture you see sci-fi movies. I had fun going around and tinkering with the different installations that featured scientific concepts - from dinosaurs, human anatomy, physics, outer space, and a whole lot more. There are also descriptions and explanations to complement the experience and help the user learn about the concept behind each manipulative. Guests can "free roam" while inside the museum and enjoy the exhibits without the hassle of following a structured tour and falling in line. You just have to go through a short orientation from a robot (yes, a robot) and you're good to go. I definitely recommend the place for field trips and educational family day outs as it is an unconventional and experiential way of learning that students can bring back and share to their classmates and friends while having tons of fun. read more

There's nothing like learning through experiencing it and the Mind Museum does just that. One of its kind in the country the Mind Museum lets kids of all ages (myself included!) learn new things by touching, tinkering and playing with their exhibits. I made a visit to the Mind Museum for my birthday a year ago and when we got the tickets I thought the 3 hour ticket was way too much time, I was wrong! I didn't realize how fun it would be to go around and play with all the things! Sure, I knew a lot of what was there already but it didn't stop me from giving it a go. I can only imagine what it would be like to be a kid doing this, SO MUCH FUN, I'm sure! It's great to have places like this in the city where kids can be kids, instead of staying home on their iPads and computers. Bring your kids, nieces or nephews, you'd be surprised, you might have just as much fun as they will! read more

Manila still needs a lot of improvement when it comes to the museum scene. Although the Mind Museum was a good take on venturing to a different kind of museum, I think it still needs a lot of improvement. I noticed that quite some time after the opening of the place, the interactive installations were already broken. I think someone should be on top of checking and doing multiple tests on whether or not exhibits still work. It should have been a fun date but I just wish there were a lot more interactive installations. This is a good place though to take your little sister if you want her to be expose to science! One of the memorable exhibits is the tunnel that makes your hair stand up when you go near a some electric ball. The location of the museum is nice as you're actually in the middle of the art city, Fort Bonifacio. You can head to Burgos Circle after your date in the Mind Museum! read more

Mind Museum was a fun experience at first. But when you get to try it a second time, it turns out rather boring. It's great for kids to learn about Science and Life, and even for adults to know the history and apparently the psychology behind certain things. I found myself having much more fun at the playground outside. But maybe that's just me. read more

Mind Museum kind of strikes me as a more bourgeois version of Museo Pambata, but not in a bad way. It's got a lot of interactive and fun exhibits like Museo, but with a P475 entrance fee, you get to experience exhibits worth even more than that fee. Being a student, I was able to avoid the steep P625 entrance fee most adults would have to pay. The pass was only good for three hours, so I was there from 3PM - 6PM with my little sister. You could actually go through all 5 exhibits in a little over 2 hours, but I chose to get some quality sibling time and explained all the exhibits to my sister so she wouldn't have to read anything. I personally adored the earth and life galleries, while my sister loved the atom gallery and couldn't get enough of the static ball that made her hair stand on its ends. read more

If you want to visit a place where you can be amazed, enjoy and learn at the same time, then Mind Museum is the best place to go. I think its over five years ago when I have visited to this place, but, I still remember the enjoyment I had there. It's not just an ordinary science zone. It's like a place where science interacts with you. They have this round room where you'll be watching all the things happening in space. They also have lots of science materials that are interactive and will surely be loved not just by kids but also adults. It is a best place for school field trips and family bondings. read more

I've brought my kids to this museum twice, It's a great place to bond with your kids as well as learn and discover new things in the process. The museum is very modern, it has five main galleries: atom, life, earth, universe and technology. It's nice because the kids get to see how things work. Our favourite part is the outer space & fossils area. The T-Rex Fossil is also a great spot to have your picture Taken. My kids and I enjoyed the Frozen Science Demo which is a demo/experiment with liquid nitrogen at the Science Demo Area at the Atom Gallery. The other galleries have activities and events in store as well so check out the museums website. This is also a perfect rainy day activity. There are also two outdoor areas, the Science-in-the-Park and the JY Campos Park. Entrance Fee is a bit pricey. I got a deal on one of the discount sites, good price for a big group so be on the look out for those as well. read more

When I said I was going to the Mind Museum, someone told me it was for kids and that I wouldn't have any fun. Lies, I tell you. Lies and slander. I'd say this museum isn't just for kids. It's for nerds and nerds at heart... and by nerds, I mean people with a genuine interest in learning. If you're the type of person who prefers to get up close and personal with the exhibits than just look at them from behind glass panels, this is the sort of museum you could probably spend an entire afternoon in. Almost every exhibit is interactive. There's something to touch or poke or prod or play with, be it a giant exhibit of a strand of DNA, a whale shark or a replica of a tyrannosaurus rex skeleton. Think of it as experiencing science up close. Interacting with science rather than just observing it sounds better. Make a methane molecule. Work a printing press. Spin the planets around the sun. Go wild! Apart from these exhibits that feel more like interactive playsets rather than boring science exhibits, there are also shows like a planetarium and 3D theatre as well as live science exhibits three times a day held by the museum's in house scientists who are more than happy to answer questions from curious minds. With so much to do and so much to see, there's definitely bound to be something for everyone no matter what age or interest. read more

So much fun to visit! It's small relative to the museums I've seen in other countries, and even to our National Museum, but the quality of the exhibits is world class. The museum is separated into different scientific disciplines, and each section has lots of cool interactive activities. Apart from the permanent displays, there's usually a special exhibit focusing on a specific area of study - music, astronomy, etc. - that lasts for a few months. And my favorite part, there's an outdoor playground that's miraculously my size. Absorbing scientific trivia has never been this fun. read more

It was so fun for my friends and me to attend this event! Late last year, we were at a loss for what to do on a random Friday night but thanks to my awesome surfing skills, I was able to find out that Mind Museum intermittently holds Quiz Nights! Yes! My friends and I are complete suckers for quiz night so we reserved a table immediately, invited a couple of people that we knew, and that's when the fun began. We didn't win, but it was really fun getting to compete for the top prize and seeing how much trivia everybody knew. Highly recommended if you're looking for something different. read more

Massive museum that's very ideal for science savvy kids and kids at heart! Looking back at my experience, you will be able to tour around the musuem for 3 hours. However, there are also heaps of documentary and shows that's good to watch so grabbing the All-Day pass ticket is really worth it. We went on a Saturday and there ain't too many guests on it. Comfort rooms were everywhere and clean, too. However, there ain't too many hand sanitizer in the area. I would actually want to see one because it is a hands-on museum, I know that guests can bring their own sanitizer but I just want the museum to think of it's guests' safety, too. The staff were all smiles and accommodating to each guests. Another thing I've noticed, too -- they don't give out flyers/map of the entire The Mind Museum premises. I would actually want to have one so I know my way around. Bottomline, it's as good as it gets. :) read more

I used to work near The Mind Museum and would always see big groups of grade school pupils going on a field trip. Science field trips are a constant in the academic curriculum. I didn't have the chance to join one when I was school so I was happy to be able to have a glimpse of what's inside The Mind Museum during an event for bloggers. This first, world-class science museum in the Philippines is so big that it would take a whole day to maximize a visit. It has 250 hands-on, minds on interactive exhibits which makes it awesome because kids can touch and explore with each one of them. I was blown away when I saw the T. Rex exhibit which is a first in our country. I used to just see it in the movies. The museum boasts of its atom, earth, life, universe, and technology galleries. Every inch of the Mind Museum was well-thought of which is why the tickets don't come cheap. I just think that it's fair enough given that the curator and her team have put so much effort and time in putting together all of the amazing things that one will find inside the building. A day at the Mind Museum is very worthwhile because it will spark children's curiosity and enhance their learning capabilities. Don't let your kids miss that opportunity! read more
