Overview

The viewing room of Kurashiki Observatory, the first private observatory built in Japan, is available for one hour. A small bottle of beer and snacks will be provided. Why not spend a wonderful time lying on a reclining chair and looking at the night sky? On starry days, we will set up a telescope so you can see the stars to your heart's content. The "Kuraten Concierge" will be stationed at the facility to give you instructions on how to use and enjoy the telescope and other facilities, so if you have any questions, please feel free to ask them anytime.
