The bright star Polaris in approximately aligned with the Earth's axis of rotation and therefore does not change its seeming position when seen from the Earth, no matter the time of day or the time of year. It is always towards North. When you stand at the North Pole, the star will be approximately directly overhead.

There is no similar, bright pole star for the Southern Hemisphere.
