Inside ARKA
Eight playful zones. One unforgettable day.
Illustrations show planned experiences, not photographs of installed exhibits.
Aqua Panorama Theatre
A 25ft curved screen that plunges you into oceans, rainforests and space.
AI & Robotics Lab
Build and code bots, train your own AI, and see how machines learn.
Quantum Computing
Peek into qubits and entanglement — yes, it's spooky and yes, it's real.
Working Science Models
Planned hands-on models — Tesla coils, gear trains, optics and electromagnetism.
Motion Capture Studio
Wear a marker suit and watch yourself become a 3D character in real time.
VR Zone
Walk on Mars, dive into the bloodstream and step inside a black hole — safely.
Physics & Biology Experiments Lab
Textbook experiments for CBSE, AP & ICSE, Classes 3–12 — circuits, optics and magnetism alongside microscopes, photosynthesis and body models.
