The Clore Garden of Science is an outdoor science museum in the north campus of the Weizmann Institute of Science in Rehovot, run by the Davidson Institute of Science Education. Its site tells of ten dunams of green lawns full of exhibits that visitors may touch, try out and operate, with workshops and activities for children and parents. The garden has nine zones, motion, light, code, matter, life, earth, plants and the brain, with water running through and joining them, and it shows changing exhibitions for the whole family. Tickets are booked on its website for a set day and time, a free car park is next to the garden, and visitors can move around the whole garden in a wheelchair, though some of the experiential paths are not accessible.
