Lonely Planet review

Scotland's flagship millennium project, the ultra-modern Glasgow Science Centre will keep kids entertained for hours (middle-aged kids too!). Four floors' worth of interactive exhibits bring science and technology alive. Check out the illusions (like rearranging your features via a 3D head scan) and the cloud chamber, showing tracks of natural radiation.

The Centre consists of an egg-shaped titanium-covered IMAX theatre and an interactive Science Mall with floor to ceiling windows - a bounty of discovery for young, inquisitive minds. There's also a rotating observation tower 127m high. Check out the planetarium where the Scottish Power Space Theatre brings the night sky to life and a Virtual Science Theatre that treats visitors to a 3D molecular journey.
