A solar thermal power generation apparatus including: a turbine rotatable around a vertical axis, a power generator driven by turbine; a funnel disposed along vertical axis so as to house turbine and having an intake port at the lower end of funnel; and a transparent box body disposed so as to surround a lower portion of the funnel and having the air intake port at a position being lower than the intake port and a heat collector disposed in a standing manner at a distance between the box body and the funnel. An upper end of the heat collector is at a position being higher than the intake port. By using an updraft occurred by heating air having flown from the air intake port into the inside of the box body by the heat collector, the turbine is rotated, which causes the power generator to generate power.
