This is one of the amazing things one can see through a good telescope. Pick a portion of the sky that is completely blank and dark, with no stars to be seen in it anywhere. Usually, this is a very small, tiny patch of the night sky. Focus the telescope on that spot, and you’ll see hundreds of pin point stars, some of which are probably galaxies themselves containing millions of stars and countless other worlds.

Years ago, I read that there actually is a region where nothing can be seen...in Orion IIRC.

I believe that is where heaven is.
