Ya Dan aerial photography

"How long has it been since you saw me? The stars all over the sky and the false light at night in the city have covered your eyes ..."

Once upon a time, our night belonged to the starry sky, and the stars in the sky were gentle and silent, as if they were countless brilliant dreams. But now, if you want to see a complete starry sky, you can only run to the suburbs far away from the city.

We should cherish these beautiful stargazing places in China.

In Ali, Tibet, there is a place called "the roof of the world" by the international astronomical community, which is juxtaposed with two world-class observatories, Mauna Kea Mountain in Hawaii and Atacama Desert in Chile, and Ali Night Park.

Ali Night Park covers an area of 2,500 square kilometers, including the core area and the peripheral area, strictly preventing and controlling light pollution, so that you can see the starry sky more thoroughly.

In addition to photography, there are six high-powered astronomical telescopes here, which provide rest beds and astronomical popular science videos for tourists. It can be said that it is the best place to watch stars in China.

The Himalayas in China is the highest mountain in the world. It is far away from crowds and light pollution, and it is also one of the best places to watch stars.

Babak frech, director of the World Night International Photography Organization, once said: "The starry sky seen at the height of the Himalayas is as clean as a diamond and is a unique landscape."

In this area, Everest Base Camp is a good choice. The facilities here are relatively perfect, and at the same time, you can see the Milky Way rising over Mount Everest after midnight, which is very emotional.

The Heima River is located near Qinghai Lake, about 220 kilometers west of Xining. It is the starting point of the highway around Qinghai Lake, and it is no stranger to people who like cycling and hiking.

It is also far away from the city, light pollution. Quiet night, looking up at the vast starry sky in the prayer forest, quiet and deep, remote and simple, fascinating!

Before, we introduced the Uyuni salt marsh in Bolivia, which is known as the "mirror of the sky". In fact, China has such a "mirror of the sky" Chaka Salt Lake.

The surface of Chaka Salt Lake is also covered with a layer of salt and a thin layer of salt water, which has a strong reflection on starlight. Walking under the starry sky, Chaka Salt Lake is dotted with stars above its head and starry under its feet.

Laigu Glacier is located in Ranwu Town, basu county, Changdu District, Tibet. It is one of the three largest glaciers in the world, with an average elevation of over 4000 meters.

There are many glaciers and ice lakes here. Under the reflection of glaciers and glacial lakes, the stars and galaxies in the sky seem endless and spectacular.

Namco, at an altitude of 4718m, is the lake closest to the starry sky.

Namco is surrounded by Nyainqentanglha Mountain, which can be far away from the hustle and bustle of the city and reflect the vast Milky Way.

In addition, sunset and sunrise are also the beautiful scenery that Namco can't miss. Watching the sun rise and fall on the distant skyline, I feel that nature is so profound and charming.

Niu Bei is located in Yingjing County, Ya 'an City, Sichuan Province, at the junction with Luding County. It is named "the largest scenic platform in China" because there are huge stones protruding from the cliff at the top of the mountain, like a bull's head, and the slender ridge looks like a cow's back.

Niu Bei's scenery includes the sea of clouds, sunset, sunrise, snow-capped mountains, Buddha's light and Xinghai. Starting in the evening, you can wait for the moment when the stars shine.

From night arrival to sunrise the next day, the lower layer is a dense and magnificent sea of clouds, with sporadic peaks looming in the middle. Looking up at the vast and beautiful starry sky, people sigh the wonder of nature.

Listen to the smell of the desert in Mingsha Mountain, feel the unique tenderness of the desert in Crescent Spring, and look up at the starry sky.

Dunhuang area is also due to the dry climate, sunny and cloudless all the year round, which is very suitable for starry sky observation. The desert meets the sky, and the wind comes from the desert through the hills of Ya Dan landform, as if bringing an ancient camel bell.

Tianhuangping is located in Anji County, Zhejiang Province, where there are many bamboo seas. It is the location of the famous drama in the movie Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. Because it is located in the mountainous area at an altitude of 1000 meters, there are valleys, peaks and streams everywhere, and it is also suitable for stargazing.

In summer, there are more fireflies flying by the grass stream, and the starlight in the sky reflects the fluorescence around you, making people really feel the beauty of nature.

Meili Snow Mountain is a huge group of snow-capped mountains, located in the north-south direction of the border between Tibet and Yunnan, with the highest peak of 6740m in Erpo, Cavaca, surrounded by 13 peaks above 6000m above sea level, which is quite spectacular.

As night falls, bright Venus and zodiacal light appear over Meili Snow Mountain, and the Galaxy Arch Bridge extending from the Summer Triangle to Orion spans the whole sky.

Look at the starry sky in Meili Snow Mountain, and you can choose Feilai Temple. In addition to Xinghai, you can also see the wonders of Rizhao Jinshan in the morning.
