All the way around Armazones

Cerro Armazones, the future home of ESO's Extremely Large Telescope (ELT), offers spectacular views of the night sky and, indeed, the Chilean desert landscape. A 360-degree panorama atop the mountain at dusk reveals the splendour of the Milky Way, the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds, and the reddish tendrils of airglow in the distance.
