Situated on Zhichun Road in Beijing's Haidian District — just steps from Zhichuli Station on Subway Line 10 — the Beijing Satellite Manufacturing Factory Science Park was once the cradle of China's first artificial satellite, "Dongfanghong-1". Today, it has been reborn as an open, multifunctional complex that blends technology, culture, commerce, and tourism. Here, aerospace enthusiasts can stroll through landmarks like Dongfanghong Square, Yunxing Avenue, and Meritorious Avenue. The park also features life-size replicas of iconic spacecraft, including the "Dongfanghong-1" satellite, the Long March-2F rocket, the Chang'e-6 lunar probe, and the Long March-1 carrier rocket, immersing guests in the vast history of China's space achievements. Join Odina from Uzbekistan as she guides us through this visual journey to experience the charm of China's rich aerospace culture!
