The best stargazing spot in New Zealand - Church of the Good Shepherd

#church #100 Ways to Travel The stone church next to Lake Tekapo in South Island, New Zealand #Good Shepherd Church, stands quietly by the blue lake, isolated and independent, with a lonely beauty. This is also a UNESCO-certified stargazing spot, known as "the most ideal stargazing spot in the world" because there is no obstruction or light pollution around, and you can see a sky full of stars and the brilliant Milky Way. The Church of the Good Shepherd was built in 1953 to commemorate the early settlers here. It is small but solemn, with a sheepdog statue on the east side. In addition to passing tourists, there are also many newlyweds who come here to take wedding photos, which are so beautiful! If you are lucky enough to stay a night in Lake Tekapo, in addition to taking photos of the starry sky at the Church of the Good Shepherd, you can also join a stargazing tour at the observatory and gaze at the deep, beautiful and mysterious Milky Way through the astronomical telescope. #NewZealandSouthIslandSelf-driving #ChurchoftheGoodShepherd #LakeTekapo #Church #100TravelWays
