Spanning over 70,000 square meters just a short walk from Granada city center, the Parque de las Ciencias is the most visited museum in Andalusia and one of Europe’s premier interactive science centers. Featuring hands-on physics pavilions, a state-of-the-art digital planetarium, a 50-meter observation tower, and its crown jewel—the magnificent BioDomo ↗ tropical rainforest pavilion—it is a must-visit destination for families, curious minds, and science enthusiasts.

- Subaquatic Tunnels: Walk through underwater viewing tunnels surrounded by freshwater stingrays, electric eels, piranhas, and coral reef sharks.
