12 Best Places to Stargaze Around the World

"Located near Lake Powell and designated the first certified International Dark Sky Park in 2007, this site’s main attraction is the "river of light" phenomenon, created by the Milky Way as it rises over the Owachomo Bridge; the natural rock formation acts like a window into the night sky and beautifully frames thousands of stars visible to the naked eye. Visitors are encouraged to camp overnight for the full experience, and artificial light sources are prohibited—making it a particularly rewarding spot for night photographers." - Skye Sherman Skye Sherman Skye Sherman is a travel writer based in West Palm Beach, Florida.
