One word...Wow! It was a great example to visit the observatory. The visit was free, and it was less crowded when I visited there. The observatory scientist was very friendly and showed us the Sun and Venus. He also showed how the telescope is aligned to different positions. He explained many other observations that are possible during different times of the year. I recommend everyone to visit if you are interested in astronomy. I'm sure you'll enjoy it.

The personnel in charge was a friendly and helpful man. It’s quite interesting to be able to observe the sun using the huge telescope. We were at the park last December just to play snow slide but the observatory was perched on top of the small hill where we played, so I took my daughter to check it out.

Lovely and nice Observatory. Staff was so kind. My Japanese skill is really poor but he constantly trying to tell me about stars and signs. Thanks for him:) You don’t have to pay for entry or see the telescope. Just remember about running time.

An actual working observatory. The kind old man was very friendly and let me peek through the telescope. I actually was able to see the sun with its sunspots and solar flares. He didn't charge me anything for entry.

It’s free but advanced appointment is needed. Didn’t get to see any stars that night as it was cloudy but the staff still did an explanation photo tour of the stars that we can see if the sky is clear.

Amazing place! The person in charge was very kind and passionately explaining all facts to us and to our children. Amazing technology! Plus it was free of charge! Worth the visit!
