New Zealand South Island’s lake Tekapo has been named on of the world’s top 10 destinations for stargazing. The skies’ purity and the absence of urban lighting around this spot make it a wonderful location for catching a glimpse of the Milky Way.
“Being surrounded by mountains which kept the low cloud away and made the stability of the night sky clearer and sharper because it was further away from the ocean also made Lake Tekapo a perfect location for stargazing“.
