The planetarium is informative & affordable. Great view of Trishul parvat, Highly recommend. Was really worth doing. I enjoyed the blend of science and Indigenous views of the sky AND Trishul parvat. They had provision for hot tea which is so comforting in chilly weather. Loved every minute! Got to see Saturns rings and the Moons craters thru the telescope- so awesome!! They had powerful telescopes and experienced enthusiast astronomer to point out stars and planets. We saw Saturn’s rings and Jupiter and it’s 4 moons. Mr. Khulbe is great guide with wide knowledge of stars. MUST VISIT PLACE IN KAUSANI - SWITZERLAND OF INDIA.

While planning my itinerary for our 12-Day Tour of the Kumaon in Durga Puja, 2018, I made it a point to visit the Observatory with my 7 yr old son, who has started studying about the solar system in his school curriculum and keeps asking questions to satiate his curiosity. Visiting a Planetarium, might be the easiest way out, but there we are at the mercy of the shows that are being shown at that point of time and as such might not address his rudimentary questions. Google may answer them but then isn't it more fun if we can experience the original. As such, just after enjoying the sunset at Anasakti Ashram, I started to look for the place. Google says its very near to the Ashram, however, none of the drivers of the tourist vehicles seems to know. I had the number of the Gurgaon (Gurugram) Office of the Observatory and upon calling them gave me the directions. Its just 50 mtr downhill walk from the Ashram towards the town. As we entered, I inquired about their scheduled show at 6:10 pm and upon confirming the same immediately cut tickets from the same counter @Rs. 100.00 per person. The observatory also knowledge portals in the same floor and they sell souvenirs also. However, we went to the 1st floor cafe and had a cup of coffee. At the scheduled time we were escorted to their 3rd floor observatory deck along with other patrons. The deck is a room with sitting capacity of 10 to 12 persons with podium where the telescope was installed. We started with Saturn. each of us took turns to view the same through the telescope. Rings on the Saturn was clearly visible. My son jumped with joy upon hearing that he could view Saturn for the real. Next we viewed Mars followed by our Moon which was 5 days short of full-moon and shone with brilliance. My son was exhilarated, even my wife felt it was worth visiting the observatory and I felt my evening meaningfully spent.

One of the most ancient temple North India and very different architecture and must see place in Kausani. Probably built in 9th century AD. Even though temple is so ancient no proper maintenance or restoration being done by Archaeological Survey of India.

A great place to visit, enjoy the serenity and calmness along with amazing views of the Himalayas. Mahatma Gandhi stayed at this place for 14 days when he visited Kausani and he penned his Anashakti Yoga here. You can stay in Anashakti Ashram. Room rates are very reasonable. Charges are Rs. 451 to 651 Per Nights.
