Built on the outskirts of Kapurthala on the Kapurthala-Jalandhar road, the Pushpa Gujral Science City sprawls across 72 acres and was created with the aim of infusing a modern, scientific temper into this predominantly agrarian surrounding. An impressive dinosaur welcomes visitors into the museum grounds, and the galleries within cover a range of subjects, from the physical to the social sciences, engineering, evolution, health, nuclear science and robotics. Theatre screens large-format IMAX films and a digital planetarium explores the wonders of space. There are also laser and 3D theatres, flight and earthquake simulators, a virtual reality gallery, a dinosaur park and a specially designed Fun Science Centre that attracts children as much as their parents.
