Optical telescopes are found through out the world. They have even been taken to space as in the Hubble Telescope.

The Optical telescope is the main telescope used by amateur astronomers. They are used in Gardens through out the world.

Professional optical telescopes are generally placed on the very top of mountings. This is to reduce the amount of distortion caused by the atmosphere. The Keck observatory for example is at an altitude of 4.2 km atop the summit of Mauna Kea on Hawaii.

where are telescopes kept?

Telescopes are typically housed in observatories, which can be located in remote areas to minimize light pollution and atmospheric disturbances. They may also be found in research institutions, universities, and even some private homes. Many modern telescopes, especially space telescopes like the Hubble, are placed in orbit to avoid Earth's atmospheric interference. Additionally, some portable telescopes are kept by amateur astronomers for personal use.
