Looking up at the stars is the best way to get close to nature and become one with nature. Let go of all the trivialities and impetuousness of your life, find a quiet place, feel the shock brought by the sky above your head in the night sky, let your mind return to nature, and accept the baptism of primitiveness.


There are many ideal places on Earth for stargazing. Factors such as low light pollution and open field of view make it easier to see the stars in these places than elsewhere. Here are some of the best places in the world to see the stars.


1. Sagarmatha National Park, Nepal


The country has a small population, is not very modern, has limited light pollution, and is high above the ground. Sagarmatha National Park in the Himalayas is one of the best places for stargazing in Asia.


2. Sinan National Park, Thailand


Although lesser known due to being off the beaten track in northern Thailand, Sinan is the perfect place to enjoy the clear view of the night sky. Near the South River, it's also the perfect spot for amateur astronomy stargazing.


3. Nikko Senjogahara, Japan


Japan is ideal for stargazing, and its eastern location means it's also one of the earliest places the sun will rise. Nikko Senjogahara, located between Gunma and Fukushima prefectures in northern Japan, is definitely worth a visit for astronomy enthusiasts.


4. Rub'al Khali in Arabia


Also known as the Empty Area, it is a larger part of the Arabian Desert and spans several countries. Throughout its history, the desert has been home to many different adventurers and nomads, and it's also the perfect place to spend an evening under the stars.


5. Mauna Kea, Hawaii, USA


Hawaii has long been regarded as one of the best places on Earth to see the stars. One particularly good spot is Mauna Kea (dormant volcano), the highest point in Hawaii.


6. Cherry Springs State Park, Pennsylvania, USA


Cherry Spring is known for its magnificent stargazing location. The park itself hosts many different stargazing events throughout the year, and it's also a prime spot for viewing the meteor shower.


7. Meech lake, Quebec, Canada


Canada has 100 great places for stargazing, but one of the best in Lake Meech. The lake is located in Gatineau Park, Quebec. Located not far from Ottawa, this is a great place to relax and forget about your problems.


8. Natural Bridge, Utah, USA


Other very famous place in Utah is the National Bridge Monument and the Owachomo Bridge. This is just one of the bridges in the area, but it's a great spot for all astrophotography lovers.


9. The European Alps


To say the Alps is a lie because they are so big and spread across 8 different countries. But combining high altitude with clear skies has always been a winning formula for writers and astronomy enthusiasts, and for that, there's no better place than the Alps.


10. Connemara, Ireland


Ireland has many picturesque places, but none are more attractive than Connemara on Ireland's west coast. It's just as beautiful there during the day as it is at night, and it's also an ideal spot for stargazing.
