Taramandal


Taramandal, a uniquely designed inflatable dome planetarium of the centre gives a fantastic view of the clear sky that you would see on a cloudless night and know about the various stars and constellations.  It will also revel to the visitors the night sky of Kalimpong or any place in the northern hemisphere.  It can accommodate about twenty-five visitors and there is a demonstrator who brings you in term with the night sky.  It is a very lively demonstration and imparts great knowledge to the visitors.
