Chinese tourism website Qyer recently unveiled a list of six domestic aerospace destinations for those who are interested in learning about the universe and spacecrafts. The following are some of the interesting destinations that made the list.
It's easier for tourists to visit Wenchang and Xichang launch centers to see the marvelous scene of the rocket igniting. In Wenchang, one can stand on a beach lined with coconut trees and watch a rocket rise up above the ocean with a loud roar that seems as if it's nearby one's ears.
Different rockets are launched all year round at Wenchang Satellite Launch Center in Hainan province, Xichang Satellite Launch Center in Sichuan province, Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in Gansu province and Taiyuan Satellite Launch Center in Shanxi province.
At the Linkspace Rocket Assembly Base in Wuxi, Jiangsu province, one can watch the whole assembly process of a rocket in the workshop and see the rockets and their engines get tested in the open air. Mars Base 1 in the Gobi Desert in Jinchang, Gansu province, simulates the living environment of astronauts on the planet.
Tourists can learn about the science of space exploration via on-site experiences with a guided tour and realize their dream of being an astronaut by wearing a spacesuit and operating instruments of a capsule.
