Opened in 1970, this is an excellent place to get familiar with the constellations of the Southern Hemisphere, or simply to gaze at enchanting, twinkling stars. Take advantage of one of the guided tours that are available. Led in Portuguese, they are geared to children, teenagers or adults. On Wednesday nights, one of the astronomers will allow peeks into his telescope. The complex offers courses, workshops and expositions, as well as a theater. Call for admission prices.
