What People Say
We visited DAG on 2nd Aug 2020 with family and kids. The planetarium show was done about 20 minutes. The telescope observatories was good fun. We watched the Moon, Saturn and Jupiter in all their full glory.
The ticket prices are very reasonable and given the experience, it is worth it. We visited with our parents and kids so 3 generations enjoyed it.
There is lot of this to gain more knowledge about planets and solar system.
