Natural Gate

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.

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.

The natural gate of Nan'ao Island is also a sign of the Tropic of Cancer, which is very characteristic of the attraction.
