Left after twelve, the train passed through suburbs on both sides, soon arrived at Greenwich station at two, walked less than twenty minutes, passed by the University of Greenwich. When we went, we also saw a visiting group from a European university, the guide led them along a small path, passed a big park, and took the main road to the observatory. There were some tourists. The ticket was ten pounds, just for the observatory. Inside it's actually not big, but a bit easy to get lost, not because it's large, but because it twists and turns. Below the observatory, under a spacious lawn, is the National Navy Memorial Museum.

After entering, we first went to the platform outside to look down at the memorial museum, then took photos of the meridian line outside. Next, we went inside and looked around. There were mainly artifacts related to navigation and timekeeping, such as clocks. We came out after a little over an hour. Being laymen who don't understand navigation and timekeeping, we were just watching the excitement.

Then we went to see the Navy Memorial Museum, walking down a steep slope. No ticket needed. We looked around the first floor, there were some navigation artifacts and models.
