Places of Astronomical Interest

[Hans Tucker]

If you had the chance to visit one place in the world of Astronomical interest (Historical or present day) where would you visit?

Me...I have a desire to go to ESO's Paranal Observatory in Chile..not sure if tourist can visit though.

- Atacama Desert (close to the Paranal and Armazones E-ELT)
- Australian Outback
- South African Karoo
- La Palma in Canary Islands
- Dome C BUT this is a VERY COLD place (75 S, 123 E, 3500m alt) very isolated in Antarctica but is probably the best sky viewing place in the world

All these four I have been but not in Dome C

I have too many places of astronomical interest I'd like to go and visit. I don't think I can pick between!!!.
