Take your film camera with you, and you can't take a photo of Tianyan and Town. Don't regret it when you go.

The Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical Radio Telescope (FAST), with a diameter of 5m, is the largest single-port radio telescope in the world at present, and it is the most astronomical science and technology for which we China people have independent intellectual property rights. No matter you are a photography enthusiast or a travel enthusiast, it is worth experiencing, accepting the influence of astronomical knowledge, appreciating the pioneering work of astronomical science and technology in China, leaving your own footprints and noble images of your eyes. Bring your old-fashioned film camera. You should not only use a digital camera or a mobile phone to pat the astronomical town, but also use a film camera to pat the spectacular eye of the sky. No matter whether it is a work or a commemorative photo, since you have gone, you will not leave any regrets for yourself.

First, it is convenient to go to Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical Radio Telescope (FAST) Scenic Area, and you can drive by car, travel freely, or take a one-day tour with a group, depending on your own situation.

Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical Radio Telescope (FAST) is located in Astronomical Town, Pingtang County, Guiyang City, Guizhou Province, about 18 kilometers away from Guiyang, and the whole journey is almost an expressway; There is a direct bus service in Guiyang, and the traffic is very convenient. Self-driving and free travel should be the best way to travel, so that you can control the viewing items and visiting time independently, and you can play for one day and stay for one night at will. It is recommended to arrive at Astronomical Town in the afternoon, stay for one night, and go sightseeing the next morning, with plenty of time and easy arrangement. It is also a good choice for friends who don't drive by car and don't have enough time to travel with a group in Guiyang, starting from Guiyang in the morning and returning at night. Which way is suitable, make appropriate arrangements according to your own specific situation, and what suits you should be the best. We drove directly from Huangguoshu Waterfall to the astronomical town, with a high speed of 295 kilometers, which is also very convenient.

2. You can shoot freely in Astronomical Town with digital camera and mobile phone. Before taking car ferry, you should leave the electronic products in the password box of the customer service center, and you can't take them to the Eye of the Sky.

Astronomical Town is an intensive center integrating passenger service, astronomical science exhibition and publicity, and business, including food and accommodation. The town is about 25 kilometers away from the Tianyan scenic spot, where you can buy tickets, watch popular science exhibitions, curtain science and education films, observe experiences and take a ride in car ferry. You can shoot at will with digital cameras and mobile phones here. The architecture of the town is very distinctive, including the popular science exhibition hall, streets and squares, which are worth taking pictures as a souvenir. Before taking the car ferry, you can enjoy sightseeing and shooting in the town. However, it is not allowed to bring any electronic products into the Tianyan site, so as not to interfere with the work of Tianyan. Therefore, electronic products, including digital cameras, mobile phones, watches, car remote control keys, etc., must be left in the password box in the storage room before going to the Tianyan scenic spot in Upper car ferry. You should consciously abide by this rule when you go to the on-site scenic spots, and don't bring any interference and adverse effects to the national eye.

Third, bring your film camera and wide-angle lens, and leave a distinguished image at Tianyan scene, so as not to leave any regrets.

Photography lovers and travel enthusiasts had better bring their own film cameras when they go to Tianyan scenic spot. Because the film camera is mechanical, it will not bring the influence of electronic interference on Tianyan, so tourists are allowed to take it to Tianyan for shooting. At the end of car ferry, at the foot of Tianyan Scenic Spot, someone rented a film camera, rented a 15 yuan, and paid extra for the film. Even if you rent a camera, it is not as skilled and convenient as your own; At the top of the mountain, there is also a spot where passengers are photographed with a film camera. 25 yuan takes a picture. Whether it is renting or letting the on-site stalls shoot, the price is not cheap. I believe that many older people should have used film cameras at home, and many families still have them. I have two 135 cameras and one 12 camera at home. Unfortunately, I didn't bring them this time, and the image of the Eye of the Eye was not taken. It took 25 yuan to let the booth take a panoramic photo of the Eye of the Eye, saying that it was scanned and sent to my mailbox, but I haven't received it yet, and it is unknown how it was taken. Without a film camera, the scenery around the eye of the sky could not be photographed, which is a pity.

The eye of the sky is very large, so it is difficult to take a panoramic view without a wide-angle lens when shooting at a scenic spot, so don't forget to bring your wide-angle lens with you when you take a film camera to meet the shooting needs.

IV. Sightseeing expenses in Tianyan Scenic Area are divided into three grades according to the content, and the cheapest is 14 yuan.

Sightseeing in the scenic area includes car ferry, astronomical images, dome images, observation experience, etc. According to different contents, it is divided into three packages: basic tour, boutique tour and exclusive tour. The prices are 14 yuan, 22 yuan and 25 yuan respectively. Visitors can choose to buy packages according to their favorite content. Because of the time, we chose the basic package in 14 yuan. In addition to watching astronomy science museum, watching movies and experiencing observation around the customer service center of the town, you also need to take the car ferry from the town to the Eye of the Sky at the expense of 5 yuan. Car ferry arrived at the foot of Tianyan Scenic Spot in about half an hour. At this time, there are two choices. One is to walk, climb the plank road with more than 7 steps, and climb to the top of the mountain to see the scenic spot; Second, transfer from 2 yuan to sightseeing bus to the top of the mountain and back to 4 yuan. Because of the time, we chose to go back and forth to sightseeing bus.

5. You can choose Astronomical Town for accommodation, and it is not expensive to eat and live in the off-peak season

If you need to stay near the scenic spot for one night, it is recommended to stay in Astronomical Town directly. Astronomical town is not big, but it is clean and tidy. Friends in free from worry and go on road trip can park their cars in the parking building. The price is 1 yuan, which is not expensive. Across the street from the customer service center are restaurants and hotels. There are not many people who eat and live in the off-season. We went there in early September on a non-holiday basis, and the standard room bid for 1 yuan. Because we need four standard rooms, the boss gave us a discount to 8 yuan. The food is not expensive, but a bowl of rice noodles and noodles in 1 yuan is more reasonable.

car ferry leaves at 9: 3 in the morning, and the last bus leaves for Tianyan scenic spot at 4: 3 in the afternoon. Living in a small town, book the next day's package with the APP on your mobile phone, pick up the ticket early in the morning, and have plenty of time to visit and experience the contents of the Astronomy Science Museum; Have enough time to go around the town and pat the humanities and characteristic buildings of the town; There is plenty of time to take your film camera to the scene of Tianyan and shoot around it.

In short, once you go to Tianyan Scenic Area, you should visit and experience it well. Also take a good tour of the astronomical town, take a good tour of the famous eye of the sky at home and abroad, and don't leave any regrets for running this trip.
