Advantages: Very modern facilities for kids Disadvantages: Seems very out-of-date and forgotten compared to other places in Milan
We visited the Museo Nazionale della Scienza e della Tecnologia Leonardo da Vinci in 2007. We had a job finding it as many locals we asked hadn't heard of it or didn't know where it was, and even one road away we saw no indications that it existed at all. We eventually found it (via San Vittore 21, about 5 minutes walk from S. Ambrogio station on M2, the green line).

On arriving ... ...eight main areas that include: Ships, Aircraft, Trains, Cars, Radio, Energy and so on, a collection of over 10,000 items all for the reasonable fee of 8 EURO for adults and under 18s, over 60s pay 6 EURO. But then on entering the disappointments start, yes there are areas of the museum dedicated to children with 18 interactive laboratory workshop sessions that are very up to date and informative but the majority of the museum feels as if it was locked ...
