2026 Full-Day Course: Starry Skies at Kodomo Tokuji Observatory

This is a day centered on the Kodomo Tokuji Observatory, located within the National Yamaguchi Tokuji Youth Nature House in Tokuji, Yamaguchi City, Yamaguchi Prefecture. It is equipped with a 510mm reflecting telescope said to be the largest in the prefecture, along with two 125mm refracting telescopes and a 150mm large binocular telescope, and holds about 10 stargazing events per year. The observation session for the Perseid meteor shower in August is especially popular. Day-trip visits are possible, but details on specific dates, fees, and whether reservations are required must be confirmed directly, so please check the official website or call (0835-56-0113) before visiting.
