Danzhuling Industrial Tourism Area

　　The Danzhuling Industrial Tourism Area is a transformation project by the company of the Fushan Reservoir near the adjacent mining area. New scenic spots such as “Lake Bend,” “Wealth Bend,” and “Clear Bend” were created, forming part of the “Eighteen Bends” landscape. Using abandoned mine shafts, an underground tour area and a coal mine safety education and training base integrating safety training and disaster simulation were established. Based on the five major underground systems of coal mining — extraction, tunneling, machinery, transportation, and ventilation — the site uses sound, light, electricity, fog, and lightweight materials to simulate accident scenarios such as gas leaks, roof collapses, and water inrushes. It also introduces the concept and format of “letting visitors participate in responding to disaster scenarios,” allowing them to truly experience the underground working process of miners, understand the general causes of coal mine accidents, and fully appreciate the importance of coal mine safety. Mr. Gao Zhanxiang, Chairman of the Chinese Culture Promotion Society and former Minister of Culture, once inscribed praise for the scenic area: “In the bitter cold of winter, warmth abounds; in the scorching summer, shade brings unmatched coolness,” and referred to it as a “Little Changchun.”
