When the Milky Way descends on the Tropic of Cancer, encounter the sun’s turning point in Mojiang

🌞 When the Tropic of Cancer passes through Mojiang, this place becomes the "Sun’s Turning Point." This invisible line marks a geographical miracle and connects the culture of the Hani people, the secret of twins, and the vast starry sky. If you want to experience this uniqueness, here is a walking guide for the Mojiang Tropic of Cancer Landmark Park. 🚡 Flying Magic Carpet: A Light Cloud Walk Upon entering the park, don’t rush to climb. Instead, step onto the unique "Flying Magic Carpet." It’s not a real magic carpet but a conveyor belt built along the mountain slope that gently carries you upward. As you rise, you can look straight at the mysterious stone pillars and statues hidden in the jungle, starting your exploration effortlessly. 🔬 Science Caravan and Fossil Digging: Touching Billions of Years of Time When the "Science Caravan" arrives at the park, it instantly ignites the passion for exploration. This is no dull exhibition—robots, mecha masters, VR glasses, and other interactive exhibits let you experience the wonders of technology hands-on. If you want to converse with even older times, head to the "Fossil Exploration Area." Pick up professional tools and carefully search the sand and soil. When your fingertips touch those life traces frozen for billions of years, it feels like opening a wordless book recording Earth’s history. This unique souvenir makes your trip truly special. 🚀 Water Rocket Launch: Touch the Blue Sky with Your Own Hands In the spacious plaza of the scenic area, experience the thrilling "Water Rocket Launch." Both adults and children can become "aerospace engineers," assembling, filling with water, and pressurizing— "3, 2, 1, launch!" Watch your water rocket trace a perfect arc and soar into the sky amid splashing water. The joy of conquering the blue sky through your own effort is undoubtedly the most vivid practical lesson. 🌌 Planetarium Exploration: Gaze at the Stars under the "First Telescope of Southern Yunnan" Mojiang Planetarium, a UFO-shaped building, is an excellent place to explore the universe. Inside is the astronomical telescope known as the "First Telescope of Southern Yunnan." Under the guidance of professional instructors, you can safely observe solar activities (such as sunspots and prominences) or, on clear nights, explore the mysteries of lunar craters and Saturn’s rings. The astronomical wonders here, like the "shadowless stick," are also worth your attention. 👫 Gemini Plaza: Feel the Secret of Twins and Cultural Fusion Mojiang is known as the "Home of Twins," with a high twin birth rate. At Gemini Plaza, you can see stone carvings of the Hani ancestors, make wishes by the Twins Well, or lie on the Twins Bed to feel the local blessings for twins. The plaza also features countless "Twin Locks" engraved with twins’ names and a stone circle representing the unity and harmony of the Hani’s 12 branches. The 12 stone pillars symbolize the 12 months of the year, and their shadows can be used to calculate the seasons. 🎵 Immerse in Hani Style: Songs, Drums, and Bonfires Every day, a professional Hani dance troupe performs multiple exciting ethnic song and dance shows. Dancers wear colorful traditional costumes and perform distinctive dances to the deep beats of large cowhide drums. During major festivals like the summer solstice, you can also watch the ancient fire-making ceremony at the Hani Fire Platform, experiencing the Hani’s worship of fire and gratitude to the sun. ✨ Travel Tips Address: Tropic of Cancer Landmark Park, Mojiang Hani Autonomous County, Pu’er City, Yunnan Province 📅 Recommended Activities: The park offers rich activities, with special events on holidays (such as Hani song and dance performances, science caravan tours, etc.). It’s recommended to check official information or consult the scenic area before your visit. 👣 Suggested Route: Take the "Flying Magic Carpet" up the mountain first, then tour downwards for an easier experience. Don’t forget to witness the "shadowless stick" phenomenon at the main pavilion and make a wish to surpass yourself at the Transcendence Tower. 💝 Spiritual Gains: Here, every time you gaze at the starry sky, touch ancient rocks, or join in joyful singing and laughter, it’s a deep dialogue with nature, history, and culture.
