Shirabiso Plateau Milky Way

I joined this Hotel’s stargazing event.After dinner, starting at 8:00 PM in the main hall, the director of a nearby observatory gave a slideshow talk about the night sky. All guests received an observation-event brochure and, as a gift, a wonderful photo taken in front of the Hotel by a local photographer.For the outdoor observation session, the Hotel blocked light from its windows, so we could clearly see the Milky Way.It was an ideal time to watch the Perseid meteor shower, and thanks to clear skies we saw many shooting stars.With plenty of explanations from the director as well, it was a very enjoyable stay.

It was our first time in four years staying at Shirabiso Ten-no-Kawa.First of all, we were so happy to see that the owner, the head chef, and everyone else were all doing well, just as always!Unfortunately, we couldn’t see the Milky Way clearly this time, but as ever the food was delicious. We were also able to join the stargazing event, making this another very fulfilling stay.We’ll be back again to see the breathtaking star-filled sky that can only be seen here.Thank you very much for taking such great care of us again!
