CosmoCaixa-Museu de la Ciència Fundació "La Caixa"

Museums / Galleries, Sant Gervasi


Fodor's Review:

Young scientific minds work overtime in this new and ever-more-interactive science museum, just below Tibidabo. Among the many displays designed for children seven and up are the Geological Wall, a history of rocks and rock formations studied through a transversal cutaway section; and the Underwater Forest, showcasing the climate and species of an Amazonian rain forest in a large greenhouse. Exhibits of sustainable exploitation techniques such as the Red Line: How to Make Wood Without Damaging the Forest are accompanied by explanations of environmental problems and how to correct them.
