Konya Science Center has welcomed 3.5 million visitors since its inauguration in 2014, featuring scientific exhibitions and interactive experiment areas.
Supported by TUBITAK, the Konya Science Center, operated by Konya Metropolitan Municipality, opened on April 26, 2014, along the Konya-Ankara highway.
The center features exhibits on the Earth's layers, earthquake testing, model fault lines, volcanoes, climate chambers, a library, and scientific exhibition areas. It also houses a planetarium, where scientific films are screened as part of a simulated space experience.
During the midterm break, the center hosted 18 workshops, including "Little Sailors and Vikings" and the "BrickZone Exhibition," where students enjoyed engaging activities in design, engineering, and coding.
Murat Kırgız, the General Coordinator of the Science Center, stated that entertaining scientific activities are organized at the Konya Science Center.
Kırgız stated, "In a survey conducted by an independent polling firm, our satisfaction rate during the midterm break was 97%. This is a very high percentage, and the firm that conducted the study was also surprised. Such a high level of satisfaction is encouraging."
