Well anywhere in Sydney beats stargazing where I am - on top of Huangshan in Anhui province, China.
The hotel is at 1570 metres with the nearby peaks at 1800m and in the clouds most of the time - which form faster than you can find your camera.
Although it’s a long way from a large city (by Chinese standards) the night sky is pretty woeful - and the usual planets barely scrape 45 degrees elevation crossing the meridian according to Sky Safari. Hence it’s quite clear astronomy is not a viable hobby in Chiba.
As it’s the moon festival weekend the hotel is also surrounded by campers who have lugged tents up here.
