Free, hardly any foreign tourists, my daughter is astronomy fan, so we came to visit specially, there are various huge telescopes, detectors, satellites, popular science movies, local student organizations to visit, there is a national research laboratory. Mainly Japanese introduction, some English, rarely see staff, can only rely on self-help.
It was quite vacant even on Saturday and I could see it slowly. The inside is like a large park, and you can take a walk because the observatory is point 々. It was like a little adventure and it was a lot of fun. A nearby college student eagerly explained the telescope.
You can visit several observatories, observation facilities, observation equipment, etc. There are plenty of historical materials and commentary versions such as photographs of dry plates of old stars, and I think it is the best facility to learn the history of modern astronomical observation in Japan. It's not the main line, but it's also recommended for retro hobbies because there are many old buildings. It is also the location of Ultraman Zeed and Majima Jopure's.
The National Observatory of Japan (NAOJ) is a unit of several astronomical research institutes in Japan and the observatory in Hawaii.
The open starry sky looks really beautiful at night, and there are many enthusiasts here to the observatory.
