Such a great and a wonderful museum! I am impressed with the kindness of the staffs. They are there to show you how you would go around the museum. There are exhibits you can activate to move it just like how the solar system works. The solar telescope was amazing and I was able to use it through the observatory dome. I was able to enjoy the planetarium sky and star show inside the theater. Highly recommended for the whole family. I went alone but it was so enjoyable.
The planetarium was really beautiful! I highly recommend it. As the explanations were in Japanese, the receptionist passed me an English booklet to help us understand the exhibition. It was a pretty small museum that you can finish within 30 minutes.
A small museum that sums up and presents the different techniques to observe the sky.
You can make a tour of it in 30 minutes. There are some events as well and a planetarium.
u can enjoy the beautiful scenery there.
I'd been interested in this place for a while, but I didn't have the means to go on my own, so I'd given up. However, this year, a bus tour was planned that included this place as one of its destinations, so I signed up. There are telescopes for observing the sun, and huge telescopes for observing distant stars that are invisible to the naked eye. You can see some incredibly large telescopes, including one owned by Kyoto University Graduate School, through glass. You'll be overwhelmed by their sheer size!
The planetarium involves sitting on camping-style chairs and gazing at the ceiling for about 15 minutes (I came in the summer, so I saw the Summer Triangle), but something felt lacking.
