The central county of Nantou has removed lamps from its Hehuan Mountain Dark Sky Park. That’s after public outcry over light pollution.
Hehuan Mountain Dark Sky Park became Taiwan’s first dark sky park and Asia’s third last August, when it was accredited by the International Dark-Sky Association.
Hehuan Mountain Dark Sky Park is a great place to admire the stars—in theory at least. Some visitors have complained that despite the name, the park is far from being as dark as advertised.
