Nihon Kagaku Miraikan

Since it was going to rain all afternoon and evening, we headed to Miraikan, a museum dedicated to emerging sciences and what the future might look like. It was on one end of Tokyo, so it was a bit of a trek just to get there. We ended up exploring the museum for over 2 hours and also saw a short film called “Birthday” (about the birth of different parts of our universe) in its Dome Theatre. The highlight was the small cute robot dog, whom everyone was queuing to pet. It also had exhibitions on the science of aging, how the internet works, future of civilisation on Earth and many other topics. Overall, we found the museum okay - worth our time because it was raining outside anyway. Divya found a place for dinner and we headed there after the museum closed.Les mer
