Lesser known to most, this amazing observatory is the property of the Indian Institute of Astrophysics. And when we went in April of 2017, over 100 years of analogue data was being digitised, slowly but surely. In fact, the whole system of processes was {and for the most part still is} analogue. There is a museum and library on campus too. So if you want to learn about the solar system, check out photos of the sky, and read up on astronomical literature of astronomical value, then put this on your To-Do list. My favourite part is the refractor though. They open it out sometimes at night to look at the night sky.
