The Mind Museum at Taguig, is a must visit learning destination. located at the heart of Taguig, The Bonfacio Global City, the museum offers a wide variety of learning displays and interactive materials for the young to learn and refresh those of the adults.
You can either book a visit online through Mind Museum Reservation pick an available date pay online and voila. Or, you can just drop by buy your ticket and enjoy the tour.
As per the website to fully enjoy the extraordinary story of science, visits are designed in three-hour time slots. However a certain number of visitors are allowed per time slot. They are closed on Mondays and are open on Tuesdays to Sundays. Time slots are:
9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.
12:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m.
3:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m.
6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. (weekends only)
I got to enter the museum for free so I am not really sure how much the tickets cost but as per online reservation it costs around Php400.00 - Php500.00 for the three-hour tour. An 'All-day pass' ticket is available which will allow you to explore the whole museum longer.
Once you enter the museum, Aedi a robot welcomes you and some museum guides will explain how the museum works.
The museum will give you the overview of how life and even simple things starts in a bigger perspective.
It will even show you how big things end up as a small fracture or mark in the depths of our planet. In addition it will show young learners how scientists found these small evidences about the big lives on Earth billion years ago.
On a long, and I mean extra long screen, shows a 3D animated documentary made by Filipino artists and Scientists, history of the earth.
The ceiling was quite a view with an artistic showcase of the Earth's treasure were seen in a puzzle like arrangement. For me it is a symbolism that every creature and every piece of earth completes a balance of life and living

Once done with your tour don't forget to drop by the museum store where you can find good things to bring home. I asked for a ref magnet and I got it. There is also a 3D shirt printing where you can bring home and wear whatever you experienced inside the museum.
If we think that after we get out of every museum the learning ends, and all will be a part of a take home memories. The difference with the mind museum is that the learning continues outside with a playground infused with different interactive and visual materials. Its like making a museum out of a playground.
This museum aims to be the country's biggest interactive museum. It may even get close to one of Asia's best. Money spent here will always be worth it, because learning in any aspect is worth any price. So instead of staying outdoors and staying under the sun making our colors darker than it has always been, why not drop by the Mind Museum or at any museums near your place, the things you'll learn will always be worth it. Its always more fun LEARNING in the Philippines.
