Mercury
From the model of the Sun, we climb down the slope towards the southeast. The model of Mercury can be found next to the walking path and, like other planet models, atop a grey concrete pillar. The names of the planets are engraved into the steel plate on top of the pillar beneath the model. Mercury does not have its own info guide and map, instead the guide is located at the model of the Sun. Note that the model of Mercury is only 5mm in diameter or the size of a large pinhead. Because trees are in the way you may not notice the Sun from Mercury, but you will find it!
The model of Mercury is 67.8m southeast from the Sun equaling 67.8 million kilometers.
