About Chinese Culture University Observatory
Chinese Culture University itself, located in the Yangmingshan area of Shilin District, Taipei, was founded in 1962 and today enrols around 32,000 students. We don't yet have verified details about the observatory's own instruments, history or public access.
Location & getting there
The observatory sits on or near the university's campus in Yangmingshan, in the hills above Taipei, part of Star Register's Asia region. The elevated, forested surroundings of Yangmingshan offer darker skies than the city centre below.
