Review:
Located in Golden Gate Park, surrounded by lush gardens and expanses of green space, the California Academy of Sciences is a San Francisco museum no visitor should miss.
All in one place you can see a planetarium, an aquarium, and a natural history museum – the only place in the world to offer so much under one roof (and on that roof you can see wildflowers).
Four floors are occupied by a real, thriving rainforest and the aquarium is home to a spectacular coral reef. After exploring all of the rich diversity that Earth has to offer, step into the planetarium and see our planet from an entirely different perspective. With more than 26 million specimens and 400,000 square feet, the California Academy of Sciences is one of the biggest natural history museums in the world.
