This hotel where you can see the universe and take pictures of nebulae is so 🆒❗️

I recently went to the Starry Sky Observation Base B&B in Yishala Village, Panzhihua. Let me start with the key points: It is together with the Southern Sichuan Observatory. To put it bluntly, There is a professional telescope upstairs from the room you live in! The whole building is in red exposed concrete style. Especially at night when the lights are on, The rough cement wall is matched with warm light. It somehow feels like a space base in a science fiction movie. The B&B has only 11 rooms in total. In the distance you can see the big windmill on the mountain. The front desk can make reservations for stargazing activities at the observatory. The staff will teach you how to adjust the equipment step by step. Here comes the point: The telescope can directly insert its own camera card! No need to bring a bunch of adapters. After taking the nebula, you can export the photos on the spot. Even a photography novice like me can easily take a picture of the Horsehead Nebula in Orion. But be sure to check the weather in advance. It was a cloudy day and even the moon was not visible. You can walk around the village during the day. The old Yi houses all have red walls. The photos are very good. The observatory is only 100 meters away from the village. It's just two steps away. You can also go to the Jinsha River Observation Deck. 10 minutes by car. You can also eat in the hotel. The price is moderate. The key is that the taste and quantity are good. More reliable than the village! 💡> TIPS: Just search for the address as "Starry Sky Observation Base, Southern Sichuan Observatory". The parking lot is at the entrance of the village. It's a bit of a slope to walk up. You can also try your luck and tell the staff that you live inside to see if you can drive in. #AprilGoodPlaces2025 #HotelGoodPlaces #HotelTestStay #Restaurant #B&B #hotel #trave
