4. Discovery Place

UPTOWN.   Discovery Place is a great way to spend a day, whether you're by yourself or with a group, young or old. Indeed, it's a safe bet that everybody will walk away from a day at Discovery Place knowing a few things they hadn't known before. The facility features exhibits on anatomy, physics, natural science, machines, and much more. If you're alone, browse the halls listening to some of your favorite music. Be sure to take in the aquarium, rain forest, planetarium, and various activity rooms.   (© 10Best)

Discovery Place offers three floors filled with a fascinating array of displays for kids and adults alike. Be sure to check out the Banana Hammer, and the world's largest eyeball -- 12 feet tall! (from Southern Living)
