Typo on China’s Sky Eye Sign Sparks Outrage, Park Promises Correction
A translation error on a highway sign near China’s FAST telescope (“China Sky Eye”) in Guizhou Province sparked online criticism. The English translation of “China” was misspelled as “Ching,” and a Pinyin misspelling was also noted. Authorities from the scenic area and the Pingtang County Culture and Tourism Bureau pledged immediate verification and correction of the signage. The China Sky Eye scenic area, a popular tech-tourism destination, features the 500-meter Aperture Spherical Telescope (FAST) and other attractions.
