I'm still being fascinated during early morning walks in our new home town.

This morning around 5:30 in PDX for example, our Eastern horizon and up and off southerly
gave full sight of the brightly lit Jupiter, the reddish Mars and it's temporary companion,
Regulus, and an extremely bright Venus, ...followed by Betelgeuse and the rest of Orion.

City star-gazing is usually not so dramatic.
