The road to the Lick observatory has many twists and turns. if you haven t been there before, you should leave some time for driving.

Lick Observatory gave me an excellent experience for astronomy and stargazing - I joined Public Evening Tours at Lick Observatory event.

The astronomers guided us to visit Visitor Center, given lectures for telescopes structures, history and functions. After seeing around tool setting and different buildings, they delivered a short history lecture of Lick Observatory, with some hot chocolate and tea - that s lovely!

In the final round, they showed all participants the amazing amounts of stars in the thousands miles away dark sky through a huge, historical telescope, may over hundred years, the stars looked so surreal close.

Great place for chilling, sunset and gaining some knowledge, will visit again for sure!
