In August, around 10 PM, the Milky Way stretches across the zenith, painting the summer night sky in vivid beauty✨ Why not take a train trip to the suburbs or mountains and enjoy a breathtaking star-filled sky from the window?


In the eastern sky, Saturn🪐 shines brightly, and around August 13, the Perseid meteor shower reaches its peak🌟 Since the 19th-day moon🌕 rises around 10 PM, the best time to watch while avoiding moonlight is between 8 PM and 10 PM. Try walking a bit from the train station to a place with fewer streetlights.


Away from city lights, you can sometimes see about 40 meteors per hour🌠 Lying back and watching the sky, the silent streaks of shooting stars gently gliding by will soothe the fatigue from your train journey.


Why not combine a summer night train trip with some wonderful stargazing? 🚆🌙
