Beijing Ancient Observatory

Unclaimed

It is worth a visit anyway, it's not expensive, and if you enjoy science and cosmology this place is worth 5 stars. The history and equipment on show is first rate. It could take 2-3hrs to view it all.

This is a small museum in Beijing City telling the astronomy development of China. Credit should be made to the Jesuits who contributed a lot to this area.

Nice walking destination, especially if your route is along the Tonghui River and Qingfeng park. Large bronze apparatus on top of observation deck are impressive for the Qing Dynasty.

Cool place to see the ancient observatory instruments of more than 300 years ago

A lot is closed because of COVID, but a very cool park with fun little nooks to explore.
