Hi Steemians,

Today I'll be taking you to a place where you can explore time and space - The Royal Observatory at Greenwich in England. It is also a place you can stand on the Meridian line - the home of Greenwich Mean Time (GMT).

今天我會帶你們到格林威治皇家天文台. 你可以在這裡站在格林尼治子午線上。這裡也是格林尼治標準時間的發源地

There are a few ways to get to Greenwich from London city and we decided to take the more exciting way to our destination - by ferry. When we arrived, we saw the National Maritime Museum and walked towards the Royal Observatory. I will share our visit to the National Maritime Museum at a later date.

在倫敦到格林威治可以用不同的方法而我們決定坐最好玩的船。到了之後我們可以看到國家航海博物館然後就去到天文台。我會遲一點介紹國家航海博物館給你們

If you are into science, this place is the perfect place for you.

如果你喜歡科學或天文學的，你會一定很喜歡這個地方．

This is the Meridian Line. I found Sydney!

這個是格林尼治子午線. 你們看，我找到悉尼！

We are standing on the line where east meets west. Pretty cool!

我們站在東和西線之間。很有趣啊！

The Peter Harrison Planetarium - very interesting

彼得哈里遜天象館，挺有趣的

The Shepherd Gate Clock can be found at the gate of the observatory. It uses the 24 hour analog dial. Below the clock you can see there is the standard lengths measurements.

這個是 The Shepherd Gate 鐘. 它是在天文臺大門出面24小時制電子大鐘還顯示格連尼治標準時間的. 鐘以下是標準長度測量。

If you like science or any astronomy related topics, you need to visit this place when you are in London. Someone like me who isn't really into these topics was still fascinated by what I saw on the day.
