Petrosains

If you are looking for an amazing adventure, kiddish but sweet and beautiful and very rich with content? then this place has exactly that! I love the journey from A to Z! From dinosaurs to Formula 1 background check this place has variety of things to explore. I definitely encourage you to take a look and enjoy such an amazing experience! I personally this place was amazing!
If you are negative and you know you’ll just criticise, don’t go! you may not like it at all! if you are just looking for fun for the kid within you then you will love it :)

I visited Petrosains ages ago as a kid and while I don’t doubt Petrosains as an educational platform for both children and adults, I was just a bit too daft to really comprehend anything that was going on at the time. My mind just ran to «Oooh pretty button that I can press, Oooh». What Petrosains does, is attempt to stimulate interest and awareness about the petroleum industry by beguiling us with nifty interactive exhibits that seductively lure little kids with many pushable buttons (No I don’t have a button fetish). What’s great about this place is the admission fee is very reasonable, varying based on your age bracket. The most it can go up to is RM15 for an adult. Which is around the price of a movie ticket, but this time around it’s educational. Boo Yeah! Thumbs up for brain cells. To be honest, when I visited this place as a kid, I hadn’t the slightest idea that it was all about the petroleum industry. I recall a helicopter simulator which takes us on a virtual tour around an oil tanker if I’m not mistaken but as a kid, all I got from that was, sit in big metal box, I Fly. What’s for certain is, I had loads of fun. Definitely would love to revisit this place as a mature, refined mind, and to really be enlightened and embrace what it has to offer on an educational level (Play with more buttons).

I am not a kid that growing up in KL. So, when everyone says this is decade ago or long time ago memory to visit Petrosains, sorry, I don’t have that. It was quite exciting when visiting Petrosains recently.
Don’t laugh at me. It is an interactive science discovery center for all ages. If you are same with me, you are not too old to go here~ Before deciding to purchase my ticket, I was standing outside Petrosains to see the admission hours. A staff saw me, came to me and asked whether I need any help. He is very friendly and told me a lot of information about Petrosains.
You are advised to purchase the ticket in advance, and give them a call to book your admission because they have specific time slots and limited entry for each session. For parents, here is a place to let your kids discovering science-​related stuffs. They can learn something more than what textbooks provided to them. While for school compounds, Petrosains is a place that you can plan for learning tour.

Some says it’s worth a visit and some says it’s not. It depends but I think I learnt about the importance to pay this place a visit when you are a kid as it plays an important part in your growth. Despite not being a science-​lover, I entered the discovery centre with my younger brother and father when I was in my primary school. There was a contest where we have to collect the answers to questions given to us throughout our quest in the centre. The growing mung bean plant that we received as a gift at the end of the quest was still deeply implanted in my memory. Would definitely recommend this to school kids.

My company was in charge of a community education session where we brought our camp kids to visit this place.
It’s my first time going to the place after more than a decade of staying in KL. It’s not the most exciting things to do in KL if you don’t have kids to go with. It’s designed for kids of a full day of learning just about everything there is about science.
They do put up a good show in trying to explain the simple science knowledge to kids. They have a Jurassic room with some dinosaurs but it’s nothing spectacular.
Kids would definitely have a great time here but they might not if you’ve brought them to much better science museums at other countries. So if they have tried the better ones. This is something you might wanna skip.

This was probably one of the most awesome places that I have visited during my secondary school field trips (Oh ya, it was like 12 years ago). Personally I think Petrosains ranked higher than the the National Science Centre @ Mont Kiara in terms of Fun Factor, partly due to the extensive capital expenditures invested into this educational science centre (A big thanks to Petronas for their CSR efforts!). Based on my experience during the days when I visited this science centre, all I can explain is that this is one of the greatest place for a student to have fun and at the same time learn and apply basic science/​physics theories.
Other than that, this science centre mainly revolves around the science behind oil exploration and how it is done, which is also a great way in giving students a glimpse of the Oil & Gas industry. I personally had a lot of fun times here and at a point it made me even think about going into the field of Oil & Gas engineering industry (Sadly I am not academically «fit» for it).
I strongly recommend those with kids to visit this place as it is a great place to spend the weekend especially for the kids as they get to learn and have fun as well. This place deserve a thumbs up!

It’s a really good place to learn about and spark your interest in science! It’s really suitable for young kids ranging from ages 4 to 12 and sometimes, they host a science fair in Petrosains where you can learn about science related things by attending workshops like the eye and heart dissecting workshop and the bacteria workshop. The price is affordable and the staff there are polite towards customers.

It has been years since I have been to Petrosains. The last was during my first school trip 14 years ago.
This place is one of its kind. It is good place to be educated about petroleum. From A to Z about it, will be covered.
This edutainment place is not just for children but also suitable for adults. As i recalled, it was a good experience as the centre is well designed and equip with the facilities that interest the young and old.
The staff are well versed with the knowledge that is require and give proper and clear explanation. It has been more than a decade, and the place is still well kept and maintained well.
This is one of the few gems we have in KL and I continue to hope that Petrosains will continue it services in edutainment and to continue to strive for improving.

It’s been a decade since I been to Petrosains. I was intrigued and happy back then yet Petrosains never once fail me.
My European friends came to visit Malaysia and specifily requested me as their tour guide. Even though I am the WORST tour guide ever ! Haha. Petrolsains has become a tourist attraction since the very beginning. Anyways, I brought them to here for a tour and I have to say. Petrolsains done a remarkable job as per usual. Petrolsains shows the development of petroleum industry. Moreover, they also provide a wide range of components and every bits of their information since the very first. Thanks to it, my European friends are loving it so much. P Furthermore, they offers a incredible gift shops but as for your dismay, the price. Nevertheless, they charge quite a high price considering they are just pretty normal than any other gift shop. However, they charge decent price for their admission fee.
A must visit!!! as Petrosains are one of the highlights of KLCC in Kuala Lumpur!!!
