Petrosains JB located inside Johor Library in Jalan Yahya Awal. Entrance is free unlike KLCC one as this is small space and limited display but still can get good information.

Great, educational place to bring your school going children. Entry is free and there are staff around to assist and explain how to interact with the exhibits. During school holidays/weekends, mini workshops are available in their Maker Studio. For today's morning slot, we built a toy solar car 🤩
