Abstract: In this paper, we present a very accurate approximation for gamma function: �egin{equation*} Gamma left( x+1 ight) hicksim sqrt{2pi x}left( dfrac{x}{e} ight) ^{x}left( xsinh frac{1}{x} ight) ^{x/2}exp left( frac{7}{324}frac{1}{ x^{3}left( 35x^{2}+33 ight) } ight) =W_{2}left( x ight) end{equation*} as $xightarrowinfty$, and prove that the function $xmapstolnGammaleft(x+1ight)-ln{W}_{2}left(xight)$ is strictly decreasing and convex from $left(1,inftyight)$ onto $$, where �egin{equation*} �eta =frac{22,025}{22,032}-ln sqrt{2pi sinh 1}approx 0.00002407. end{equation*}
