Tekapo, a small town in New Zealand, is the world's first starry sky reserve. Why can the starry sky become a reserve?

First, the first "international dark sky protection zone"

Maybe you will be curious when you hear it for the first time. Why can the starry sky be a protected area? The answer is: the starry sky in Tekapo is so beautiful that it looks like a fairy tale. Now there are more and more scenic spots that are seriously polluted in the world, so we naturally want to protect such a beautiful starry sky, and only a few are left.

The best place to enjoy the beautiful starry sky with the naked eye.

I don't know when it started, but looking up at the stars in the sky has already become an unavoidable thing in our lives. In the South Island of New Zealand, in the "must-visit and play" plan, the most anticipated thing is to go to Tekapo, a small town known as the "International Dark Sky Reserve". Yes, when the bright lights and impure air in the city make it a luxury for us to look at the stars, it must be the most touching thing if we can look at the stars in the starry sky with the naked eye.

Third, wait carefully for the beautiful Milky Way.

As night falls, as the sky gets darker, the most beautiful side of the town is displayed. On a clear night, looking up in Tekapo town, you can see the dense stars in the sky, which makes people stunned at first glance.

Fourth, friends feel the sharing of sleeping places under the stars.

The name of Tekapo Town comes from Maori, which means "straw mat at night". Many people describe it as "a place to sleep under the stars". Whenever I look up at the sky in Tekapo, watching the Milky Way flowing overhead, and watching the bright and shining star clusters in the night sky, I believe everyone will have different feelings.
