The exhibition “Mathematik zum Anfassen - Get in touch with mathematics” will be held in Hanoi from March 26 to April 12.

Co-organised by the Hanoi-based Goethe Institute in collaboration with Mathematikum, a science museum in GieBen , Germany, the exhibition will introduce a new and easy way to approach maths, one of the most abstract sciences.

Visitors of all ages and education levels will have chances to access mathematics by joining experiments and games such as puzzles, bridge building, watching a bowl race or creating beautiful bubbles.

This is a visual approach combining doing, feeling and thinking to create inspiration for this science.

The exhibition will present a collection of the most appreciated experiments from Mathematikum, where over 160 mathematical hands-on exhibits are on display.

Mathematikum is one of the very first museums on interactive mathematics in the world. It has attracted approximately 1.5 million visitors since it was inaugurated in 2002.-VNA
