Nagoya · Shirakawa Park / Fushimi
Make time for science, then step into the park.
The large silver sphere makes this museum easy to recognise, but the visit is about looking, experimenting and asking questions. Now branded FUJI Nagoya Science Museum, it combines exhibition rooms with a separately ticketed planetarium programme.

Choose a show before building the day
A planetarium visit needs a specific programme and seat availability. Check the language, timing and ticket conditions rather than assuming you can join the next show. Exhibition-only admission is useful if you prefer a flexible visit or cannot find a suitable session.
Continue toward Osu
Shirakawa Park offers a short outdoor break before the temple and shopping streets at Osu. Keep the museum as the main block; a full planetarium programme and every exhibition can take much longer than a quick stop. Demonstration rooms may have their own capacity limits.
