The starry sky is synonymous with romance. Many people like to watch the starry sky. The starry sky is changing. As the earth moves around the sun, the relative positions of the earth and the sun are constantly changing. Therefore, on the same night in a year, the constellations seen in different seasons are different.


The best places in the world to watch the stars are as follows:


1. Galloway Forest Park, England


Galloway Forest Park in Scotland is one of the four largest dark night parks in the world, and it is also a gold-level dark sky reserve in the UK. During the day, the park is overturned with dense forests and rolling hills. At night, it is full of stars and beautiful and quiet.


In 2009 the park was awarded the honorary title of "Dark Night Park" by the International Dark Night Association and designated as one of the best places in the world to watch the stars.


2. Natural Bridges National Park, USA


Natural Bridges National Monument is located in Utah, USA, and is one of only 4 dark night parks in the world. A star-studded night hangs over the Owa Chomo Bridge at Natural Bridges National Monument in Utah. The reserve is the first dark sky park to be named by the International Dark Sky Association.


3. Death Valley National Park, USA


Death Valley is considered one of the driest places on Earth, with an average annual rainfall of just 60mm, partly due to extreme weather conditions, and while it's far from major cities, Death Valley is an ideal spot for stargazing. Death Valley is the largest dark sky reserve in the United States designated by the International Dark Sky Association.


4. Hungarian Bik National Park


The Bik National Park is Hungary's largest national park, nestled in the northern mountains of Bik, near the city of Miskolc, where the perfect stargazing opportunity awaits you beneath the country's highest mountain.


5. Cherry Springs National Park, USA


Cherry Springs National Park in Pennsylvania has some of the best night sky views in the United States. Depending on the time of year, you can see Venus, the International Space Station, and the Omega Nebula. Although the park is open year-round, they also do offer advice on the best times to visit. Spring and summer are ideal times to observe the Milky Way, but fall and winter are better for overall clarity.


6. De Bosplatt, The Netherlands


De Bosplatte is a nature reserve recognized by the European Council, and the best night viewing location here is in the east of Tecilin Island, which is very convenient. The public has unlimited access to the park at any time, and there are eight designated stargazing spots to choose from.


7. Mauna Kea, USA


Mauna Kea is a dormant volcano, where many observatories are located. It is 4,207 meters above sea level and has a particularly dry climate throughout the year. Mauna Kea is an ideal place for stargazing and astronomical observations.


The visitor information station at the summit offers visitors publicly funded telescopes and volunteers to help you with the viewing experience. It is also the only place in the United States where you can see the Southern Cross.


8. Sagarmatha National Park, Nepal


A mountain park at the foot of Mount Everest, covering an area of 1,148 square kilometers, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a must-see for astronomy enthusiasts. When night falls, visitors can enjoy a beautiful and clear view of the Milky Way over the Himalayas. If you stay overnight, you'll see the night show here.



You also need to pay attention to the viewing points you choose. There are mainly two, one is the top of the mountain, but where there are mountains, there are mountains, which is not very good for observation near the horizon. The second is the plateau or plain of Pingchuan, but the plateau is better, with less water vapor, and the air is clearer than on the plain.
