Traveling and enjoying while learning is the best experience that one could have. Visiting some places that could give you new knowledge takes our adventure in a much more different level. Come and see our Educational Tour Plan with a blast!
Our First Stop: The Mind Museum
The Mind Museum is a science museum in Taguig, Metro Manila, Philippines. It is located on a 1.2 hectares (3.0 acres) lot in the J. Y. Campos Park in Bonifacio Global City, a business district of the city.
The museum opened in March 16, 2012, although a pre-launch reception was held a year earlier on December 15 where Vice President Jejomar Binaydelivered a speech in behalf of President Benigno Aquino III. The facility was developed by the Bonifacio Arts Foundation Inc (BAFI). (Wikipedia)
The activities could be done here are all about science which simply means it is about everything that is cool!
The Story of the Atom: The Strange World of the Very Small
The Atom Gallery is the gallery with the most number of interactive exhibits. It contains the very elemental forces that are so familiar that we take them for granted like gravity and electromagnetism. It also presents the counter intuitive quantum world that resembles nothing from everyday experience, yet serves as the basis for much of the technology of today.

The Story of the Earth: Nature Across the Breadth of Time
The Earth Gallery features the first permanent T-Rex exhibit in the country along with other unique exhibits that focus on forces at work in shaping and reshaping the Earth. Knowing natural history is the way we can educate museum visitors on how long it took the planet to give us what we now inhabit.
The Story of Life: The Exuberance of Life
The Life Gallery features the exuberance of a living planet in all its forms. It features the various habitats that nurture an astonishing number and kinds of organisms. This gallery also features the inner spaces that inhabit this life in the form of molecules called DNA.
The Universe Gallery showcases humankind’s wondrous fascination with outer space. It features exhibits that show how all of life, as we know it now, found its atomic beginnings in the stars in space. It enfolds visitors in the fundamental elements and forces at play in the universe. The Universe Gallery includes a mini, teaching planetarium that brings guests closer to the wonders of the universe.
The Technology Gallery is the largest of all the galleries. It is the only exhibition space on the second level, overlooking the other four galleries. This gallery presents technology not as a mere tool, gadget or industrial advancement but as means to flesh out human values, to help us become better humans.
The gallery is divided into five major themes with each theme occupying a Node. The themes of the Nodes are: How We Live, Who We Are, How We Know, How Things Work, and Here to There.
Corridors
Each of the galleries are connected by crucial links dubbed as Nature’s Webways.
These feature immersive exhibits that help visitors make the transition in between the intricately woven stories of the galleries.
