Starting from Taichung Train Station, the most convenient way is to head to the bus transit station at the exit and take an optimized bus route running along the Taiwan Boulevard corridor (such as routes 300 to 310). After getting off at the "National Museum of Natural Science" stop, walk along the Guanqian Road greenway for about 5 minutes to easily reach your destination.

Located in the North District of Taichung City, the "National Museum of Natural Science" (NMNS) is the first science museum established in Taiwan and the largest, most popular science education base in the country. NMNS is not only a sanctuary showcasing the mysteries of nature but also integrates research, collection, and educational functions. Attracting countless domestic and international tourists and students to explore every year, it is one of the most representative and intellectual cultural landmarks in downtown Taichung.
The museum is a prominent landmark.
The exhibits inside the museum are highly diverse, mainly covering four major thematic areas: the Science Center, the Life Science Hall, the Human Cultures Hall, and the Global Environment Hall. Among them, the lifelike "Dinosaur Exhibit" in the Life Science Hall is the museum's most famous signature attraction; the massive dinosaur skeletons and moving animatronic dinosaurs never fail to mesmerize visitors of all ages. Adjacent to the main building, the "Botanical Garden"—with an exterior resembling a giant glass greenhouse—displays the captivating beauty of natural ecology with its rich tropical vegetation and towering waterfall landscape.

It is the premier destination for family learning, school field trips, and public leisure outings.
