The Givatayim Observatory Givatayim

Whoever does not know it cannot even imagine that at the top of the high hill, on the slopes of which are the lawns of the "Second Aliyah Garden” (a nice place to visit in itself) is located an observatory. Just like that, at the heart of the city of Givatayim. The beautiful structure opens its gates to the public once or twice a week and serves as an excellent alternative for other usual types of entertainment. There is a big telescope room here (for scientific use only, but one can just take a look), lecture rooms in which one can listen to stories about the stars, and the main attraction: an observation roof where everyone goes, wait their turn to look through the telescopes and be amazed by the texture of the face of the moon, by the strong color of Mars and by distant star clusters. Please note that this visit does not suit young children. Arrival through HaMered or Golomb Streets.
