The 4-story center, the largest of its kind in the Southeast, provides 10 exhibit halls that allow visitors to explore everything from Florida swamps to the arid plains of Mars to the human body. One of the big attractions is the Dr. Phillips CineDome, a 310-seat theater that presents large-format films, planetarium shows, and laser-light extravaganzas. In KidsTown, little folks wander in exhibits representing a miniature version of the big world around them. In one section, there's a pint-sized community that includes a construction site, park, and wellness center. Science City, located nearby, includes physics lessons and a power plant, and 123 Math Avenue uses puzzles and other things to make learning math fun. Allow 3 to 4 hours, more if you have an inquiring mind.
