This white lighthouse is not only a directional coordinate, but also the length of the world's top ten famous cities from the lighthouse is clearly written on his billboard, such as Beijing 12933 km.

Looking at the railing of the Cape of Good Hope, you can see the sea and sky in the distance, and you can also see the waves splashing under your feet, which can be described as a myriad of weather.
