You can spend the whole day in this place. There are many activities, specially for children. The galleries are extensive with plenty of things to interact with. Much better than the Science city. The canteen is poor and not clean but it is possible to go out to have a proper meal and come back without paying the entrance again.

the science projects displayed are awesome...coal mine experiance....just great education experiance.....

BITM has lots of science experiments which make it a fun place. The shows are also good. But would recommend a day in Science City over this.

Children, or the elderly, who find it difficult to assimilate scientific phenomena, should visit this place for some clarity in the matter. The only place in the city to familiarise with the insides of a coal mine.

Nice place for a visit if you're interested in Science and astronomy. Don't miss the shows here too... they're quite educative in a fun way
