Oregon Museum of Science & Industry in Portland, OR
A must-see attraction, the Oregon Museum of Science & Industry is a virtual playground for kids and adults alike. Ranked one of the top ten in the country, the Museum features five exhibit halls and eight science labs that offer a whirlwind of fun interactive exhibits and hands-on demonstrations. After a day of experimenting or exploring the USS Blueblack Navy submarine, visitors should head to the Motion Simulator to experience the twists and turns of a journey through a volcano or a high-speed lap around the Grand Prix racetrack, or visit the five-story OmniMax theatre where they can take a breathtaking virtual tour of the Alps or get inside a hurricane.
Not to be missed are the astronomy and laser shows at the Kendall Planetarium. A giant domed theatre transports visitors into space with shows like Black Holes: The Other Side of Infinity, or submerses them in the dazzling display of special effects at the Laser Symphony of the Stars show.
