Under the Stars: a night at Amangiri- Time lapse video by Stephen Wilkes

Amangiri is an extravagant 600-acre resort near the Navajo Nation in Utah near Page, Arizona. This is one of the best places in the United States for star-gazing: The air is clear and dry, and there's very little ambient light. If you'd like less exposure but a more focused relationship with the starry pitch above, six Amangiri suites have "Sky Terraces"—three protecting walls with the open sky above and a pool below you.
