Everything in the planetarium is in Mandarin, but it is still very fun. All the shows are in Mandarin, but the effects are awesome. There is a museum exhibit that is part of the planetarium. In the museum there are a lot of super fun games. An art exhibit is next to the museum. There is a lot of unusual space themed art there.

This planetarium was the first planetarium ever built in Asia! It was built in 1957. Later, the projectors were upgraded to high definition. Next to the Zeiss Cosmos Theater there is a modern astronomy museum that includes 3D and 4D movies.
