OBSERVATOIRE CERRO MAYU

This atypical observatory is located about 25 km east of La Serena, in the municipality of Talca, at the level of the cultural center, a little outside the city to the east (road D.269). The building, which houses, among other things, a 355 mm diameter telescope and a conference room, has an architecture that symbolizes pre-Columbian culture, emerging from the ground and rising to the zenith. Observation evenings are programmed there: to know them, it is imperative to phone beforehand. Please note that the tours are in Spanish only.
