King George Island is the larger island in the South Shetland Islands. In terms of geographical location, it does not belong to the Antarctic Circle in the sense. It has a few latitudes from the Polar Circle. Therefore, compared with other places in Antarctica, the temperature on the island is relatively suitable. Many countries have stationed scientific research stations in Here, King George Island has thus become the most densely populated place in Antarctica, and gradually, it is regarded as the unofficial capital of Antarctica. There are about 13 national inspection stations, among which Chile has a large number of inspection stations, and other countries include South Korea, Brazil, Argentina, Spain, Poland and China. The Frey Station in Chile is the largest on the island and has many community facilities, such as elementary schools, churches, banks, post offices and shops, so it has become a more popular and popular place to visit on the island. Not far from the Chilean station airport, is my country's Great Wall Station, covering an area of 2.52 square kilometers. With the vigorous development of Antarctic tourism, the Great Wall Station has also become one of the most desirable and favorite Antarctic sites for Chinese people. Living on King George Island, humans are not the masters. This is the home of penguins and seals. Gentoo penguins and Adelie penguins will ignore everything. They pace leisurely among the tourists, facing the The clicks of various cameras also indicate calmness. Some curious babies may follow your buttocks and watch you board the boat and leave. Some people say that you really have to go to the Antarctic before you find that penguins are very rare in the world. Cute animals, I have seen them on TV a lot, and I have seen them in the zoo, but they are not as real and interesting as here. The island on the opposite side of the Great Wall Station is called Penguin Island. It is said that there are tens of thousands of penguins living here. If you are lucky, come and see it.
Because of the Antarctic tour, I took the Midnight Sunshine on Haida Road for the first time.
