Science Center and Planetarium Chainat Bird Park, Chainat

Two fascinating worlds collide at this unique attraction where scientific discovery meets natural wonder. The Science Center and Planetarium Chainat Bird Park offers visitors an extraordinary dual experience, combining hands-on learning about astronomy and science with close encounters with Thailand’s diverse bird species. This educational destination stands out as one of the few places in Thailand where families can explore the cosmos above while discovering the wildlife that shares our planet below.

Inside the planetarium, visitors can journey through the solar system during immersive dome shows that bring distant galaxies to life overhead. Interactive science exhibits encourage hands-on exploration of physics, astronomy, and natural phenomena through engaging displays and experiments. Meanwhile, the bird park section showcases both native Thai species and exotic birds from around the world, with spacious aviaries allowing close observation of colorful parrots, graceful cranes, and other feathered residents. The sounds of chirping and calling birds create a natural soundtrack as you wander through well-maintained pathways, breathing in the fresh air mixed with earthy scents of the park’s lush vegetation.

Educational excitement fills the air as children’s laughter echoes from the interactive exhibits while families gather under the planetarium dome in quiet wonder. The combination creates an atmosphere of discovery that appeals to curious minds of all ages. Teachers often bring school groups here, adding to the lively energy during weekday visits, while weekends tend to attract families seeking both entertainment and learning in a relaxed outdoor setting.

Plan your visit during the cooler morning hours when both the birds and visitors are most active, and the science exhibits are less crowded. The attraction sits along Phahon Yothin Road, easily accessible by car or local transport from Chainat town center. Bring comfortable walking shoes for exploring the bird park areas, and consider packing water and snacks for a full day of discovery. With free admission and operating hours until 4 PM daily, this dual attraction offers exceptional educational value that justifies the trip to Chainat Province.
