Once you enter, you will find a second sign, depending on which tour you are joining you will need to either turn left (English Tour) or keep straight (Mandarin Tour). Drive for another 100 meters and you will find the location with red lights on. We don’t have a toilet on site, please get ready before coming to the site. See you at 10.45pm

Hi! We were looking forward to this greatly! Unfortunate about the weather, if there is a spot available for tomorrow we would love to join. We just don’t want to have to drive out with so much of the sky not visible.

Cheers, William
