    The museum’s 1970s core was a modest science centre, then the 1995 expansion added a full lab wing and a planetarium. In 2012 a digital interactive gallery opened, giving kids a hands on feel for Assam’s biodiversity. If you finish the planetarium before lunch, the 15 minute drive to Kamakhya Temple lets you soak in the temple’s early morning chants without rushing. Staying at The Greenwood Resort puts both sites within easy reach.
