lots to see and experience at the California Academy of Sciences. Fantastic place for children to learn about natural history with a planetarium (running 4D immersive shows) and a rainforest with birds and butterflies all around.

The California Academy of Sciences in San Francisco is a renowned natural history museum and research institution. It's a unique blend of aquarium, planetarium, and natural history exhibits, all under one roof.

This was fun. When you book this make sure to have the whole day off as it will take a lot of time to go around. I don’t recommend the food tho. Personally it was expensive but you can definitely try it out if you want.

The museum is a big one, and you will normally need to spend two hours for a visit. I enjoyed watching the short movie and the aquarium very much.

An attraction well worth spending half a day visiting, especially if you are visiting San Francisco with kids. The facilities inside the museum are very well done and there are many things to see. There are booths in the museum where service staff explain carefully, which is especially suitable for curious children to ask questions. Booking tickets through KLook is convenient and fast. You don’t need to spend a lot of time queuing at the door. You can get the electronic ticket immediately after buying it and swipe it to enter the venue.

This is my first time at such a huge science museum. I heard the space exhibit is famous, but I didn't get a chance to see it. It's really large with a wide variety of things to see.
