"Important Landmarks of Nan'ao Island" The "Nature Gate" of the Tropic of Cancer sign tower on Nan'ao Island is the 11th Tropic of Cancer sign tower built in Qing'ao Bay Tropic of Cancer square. It is at the intersection of the Tropic of Cancer and the eastern shore of China's mainland. The only Tropic of Cancer sign tower located on the island. The tower design uses the Chinese character "door" for evolution, the radius of the sphere 3.21 meters (corresponding to the spring equinox on March 21), the cantilever length 6.22 meters (corresponding to the summer solstice on June 22), from the base to the height of the sphere 12.22 meters (corresponding to the winter solstice on December 22), The angle of the gateposts on both sides corresponds to the north latitude. Every summer at noon, when the sun directly shoots the Tropic of Cancer, the shadow will pass through the center of the ball above the circle and project the center of the platform. The "Nature Gate" of South Australia forms a mountain, a sea and an echo of the symbol tower on Jilong Mountain in the western suburbs of Shantou. The "Nature Gate" Tropic of Cancer sign tower has become an important landmark in South Australia. It should be a must-check place for every tourist on Nan'ao Island!

    The "Nature Gate" is the Tropic of Cancer sign tower in South Australia. It is located on the Tropic of Cancer square on the island of Nan'ao, Shantou City. It is the only Tropic of Cancer sign tower on the island. Every summer at noon, when the sun directly shoots the Tropic of Cancer, the sun will pass through the center of the ball above the "gate of nature", projecting the center of the platform to achieve the effect of "standless shadow".

    An iconic building in Qing'ao Bay. Located in the center of Qing'ao Bay, you can see Qing'ao Bay, known as "Swimmer Tianchi". Qing'ao Bay presents a crescent shape, long 2.4 kilometers, and the water depth within 150 meters does not exceed 1.2 meters.

    Located in Qing'ao Bay, next to the Tropic of Cancer Square. There is also a large parking lot. There are many restaurants nearby and the bus is very convenient. If there is a long plank road in Qing'ao Bay here, it is better to walk. Many water sports can be carried out here.

    This year, I didn't watch the dragon boat at the Dragon Boat Festival. I changed to see the sea. [Smug] I didn't have a public relations to find the sea view. It's still possible to be here. I'm here alone. This is the sun will be hotter. Others are not bad. The traffic reasons are also OK.

    Nan'ao Island crosses the Tropic of Cancer, this natural gate is built on the Tropic of Cancer, there is a hole in the middle of the sphere on the top of the building, to the summer solstice day, the sun directly on the Tropic of Cancer, the sun will directly from the hole of this sphere through, vertically land on the ground, quite interesting. What needs to be complained about is this small attraction, which takes only 10 minutes to turn around, but the parking fee is 15 yuan, which is a bit pitted.
