Which exhibits should you definitely check out during your visit?
Every corner of the museum is designed for both kids and adults, so don’t hesitate to go with your family or friends. El Papalote features different exhibits to help you explore science and discover how to care for the planet; some of our favorites are:
Decide: a themed area that teaches children the importance of consuming products that don’t harm the environment.
Radio and Television: the spot inside Papalote where you can share your ideas on how to care for the environment and become an environmental reporter.
Simulator: This is a projection of our planet as seen from space. It reveals its natural phenomena and how important it is to keep the Earth in balance.
In addition to these exhibits, there’s a new dinosaur exhibition where you can learn more about these creatures that once roamed our planet.
