| About these ratings | ||
With exhibits featuring everything from dinosaur bones to Egyptian mummies, the Denver Museum of Nature & Science is a great place for budding scientists of all ages. It focuses on six major areas of scientific research: anthropology, zoology, geology, health sciences, paleontology and space science. Determine your physical condition in the Hall of Life or experience the different stages of Earth's development by taking the Prehistoric Journey before watching a film about space travel at the IMAX Theater. One Yelp.com user writes: "From prehistoric creatures to the outer edges of space, each exhibit transports you to another time and place … with a planetarium, IMAX, and touring exhibits to choose from this place is the perfect place the expand your mind!"
Located in City Park, just south of the Denver Zoo, the Denver Museum of Nature & Science is open seven days a week from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Admission for the museum only costs $11 for adults and $6 for seniors, students and children ages 3 to 18. Entry to the IMAX and the planetarium will add a couple dollars to the price.
