"This stay experience really exceeded expectations! The starry sky theme of the homestay is full of ingenuity from the room layout to the view outside the window. The large windows can directly see the mountains and red roofs in the distance. In the evening, I sit by the window and watch the clouds and clouds, and even the air is relaxed. The projector, warm light curtains and clean bedding in the room make the night rest both ambient and comfortable enough, and even the cartoon stickers on the suitcase have become a small highlight of taking pictures.
The most surprising thing was the boss's enthusiasm - not only took us to the nearby ”gate of time” sculpture, the spiral mirror building in the sunset like a tunnel to the universe, standing inside as if you can touch the romance of the starry sky; We also took us to see the radio telescope in the mountains, the huge white antenna hidden among the green trees, listening to the boss tell the story of ”China's Tianyan”, suddenly feel that astronomical knowledge is not so far away.
Without deliberate service, I have shared like a friend: such as reminding us to go to the ”gate of time” in the evening, or telling us that the mountain road next to the telescope can take a full picture of the equipment. This sincerity of ”taking attractions as your own backyard” is more moving than any official introduction. Next time you come to Pingtang, you must live here, and then talk to the boss about the astronomical stories hidden in the mountains and rivers."
