A dinosaur hall, a dome show and hands-on science galleries for a rainy day with kids near KT.

Best time
Any time of year; it's all indoors and a good monsoon-day plan. It's closed on Fridays and shuts early on weekdays, so Saturday or Sunday gives you the most time.
How long
About 3 hours
Getting there
Fly from KL to Kuala Terengganu (about an hour), or drive about 5 hours on the East Coast Expressway. PSKT is at Kampung Laut, Chendering, about 20 minutes' drive south of the city centre.

Terengganu's science centre, known to everyone as PSKT, in a big modern building at Chendering just south of Kuala Terengganu. About ten galleries of hands-on exhibits run from natural disasters and dinosaurs to a dome show and a play zone for small kids. It's the easy plan when the beach is rained out.
