Opening of TMG Building Observatories on New Year’s Day

 

TMG building observatories have opened early on New Year’s Day since 1995, but this year they will not open in the early morning for visitors to see the sunrise, but instead keep ordinary opening hours to prevent the spread of the COVID-19 disease. The details are as follows. We ask for your understanding and cooperation.
