GEOCACHING IN CHINA NOTE: (applies to all of mainland China as of 2015) The coordinates of the geocache are correct, but the map will not display the "dot" in the right place. The actual location is usually east and south of the dot on the map.
在中国大陆玩“地理寻宝”游戏的温馨提示:地理的坐标是对的,但是App里面的地图不准。在地图上的那个指出“宝盒“的位置的小点就不会在正确的位置显示。但没关系!
This is why you must 你就必须:
- Rely on the compass for exact location (for some reason it is more accurate than the map)
你一靠近目的地要更依赖指南针功能
- Read all clues and description carefully.
仔细地读所有的线索(点击"Hint")
The cache is small. There's room for the log sheet and a pencil. Jump on the metro to line 3's Dashi 大石 station and come out of exit C. You should be able to navigate from there.
Dashi mean's "Big Stone", but I couldn't really find large stones around. But then again, you never know what hidden gems are lurking in these small Chinese communities. To look at the area, it doesn't appear to be a special place, but have a walk around and find out for yourself!
For this metro stop, I've tried to give you a different style of cache. Don't expect any of the other cache designs that I've used in the Metro Line 3 series so far.
Hope you have fun!
P.s. this is the fourth cache I've had to put in Da Shi so far, because of the number of muggles and scarcity of hiding spots! Please observe stealth.
