This place offers fabulous sunset viewing in the Atacama desert. This place could be visited as an extended part of the Moon Valley tour. It is in the midst of beautiful natural surroundings offering great photo opportunities. Certainly would very highly recommend visiting here prior to sunset.

It was very interesting to learn how such an observatory is operated. We also had the chance to see a dish in maintenance.
