Stargazing in Gorky Park
This date idea is perfect for those who enjoy connecting with nature and each other in a romantic and serene setting. The sky in September is typically clear in Moscow, making it perfect for stargazing.
- The date starts with a walk in the park, hand in hand. You're surrounded by the soothing sound of crickets and the scent of blooming flowers. You find a cozy, secluded spot away from the city lights where you can lay down your blanket and gaze at the stars.
- As the night falls, the stars start to appear one by one. You ignite a conversation about the universe, constellations, or folklore associated with various celestial bodies to deepen your connection.
- As the evening comes to an end, wrap up with a small picnic. A thermos full of hot tea or coffee would be perfect to keep you warm.
Preparation steps:
- Since this date is outdoors in the evening, itโs important to dress warmly. Bring a thick blanket and a soft pillow to lay on. You may also want to bring another blanket to cover yourselves with if it gets too chilly.
- Preparing a small picnic basket with some snacks like sandwiches, fruit, and chocolates is also a good idea. Donโt forget the thermos filled with your favorite hot beverage.
- Lastly, you might find a stargazing app on your smartphone helpful to identify different stars and constellations.
Some tips:
- To make the most of your date, ensure you check the weather forecast beforehand to ensure the skies will be clear. Also, check when the moon phase, as a full moon can make it harder to see the stars.
- Remember to respect the park's opening hours and regulations. Make sure that your chosen spot isn't too close to the walking paths or the park's lights, as this may interrupt your stargazing experience.
- Finally, consider keeping your phones muted or off to truly immerse yourselves in the experience and each other. Use this time to connect, be present and enjoy a peaceful, romantic moment together.
