Why do China people like to travel to the South Pole?

Antarctic continent is the latest continent discovered in the world, known as the seventh continent on earth, the continent with the lowest average temperature and the highest average altitude in the world, and the farthest place from China. The Antarctic continent is lonely at the southernmost tip of the earth, and more than 95% of the area is covered with thick ice and snow. Surrounded by the ocean, the Antarctic continent is the only land in the world without aborigines, far from other continents and completely isolated from the civilized world.

So why do many people in China like to travel to such a remote place as Antarctica?

First of all, just like many people will climb Mount Everest, they have the courage to challenge nature and conquer themselves. The Antarctic continent is full of dangers, and even if the team goes, it must be extremely careful. Carelessness is a matter of life and death. A series of dangers that need to be considered, such as ice cracks, snowstorms and albino days, are all layers of tests, which also makes people with courage more eager to move, hoping to cross these dangers one by one.

Secondly, going that far is an expensive thing in itself. Antarctic tour is a game for the rich, especially for the elderly who have struggled for most of their lives and want to travel to a place they have never been to and see more scenery. This is also a reason.

Finally, and most importantly, of course, the beauty of the South Pole. The Antarctic Peninsula is the warmest and wettest place in the Antarctic continent. Watch whales in Wilhelmina Harbor and feel the climate change in Paradise Bay. For China people, the Great Wall Station is definitely a must-see Antarctic attraction, which is located in south shetland islands. Of course, the most shocking thing is the aurora, which is like a magic belt or radiant light, plus the purity of the iceberg snow scene, which really makes people unable to open their eyes.
