Recently renovated in July of 2008, the Sendai Astronomical Observatory now features an amazing large-scale telescope and planetarium, perfect for all stargazers. The planetarium in particular has been given a digital makeover to really increase the impact when looking up at the night sky imagery. The 25-meter diameter of the planetarium's dome actually makes it the largest level planetarium in Japan. The Sendai Astronomical Observatory is yet another great reason to visit Sendai!
