The May Day holiday is approaching, and the spring break of primary and secondary schools in many places seamlessly connects with May Day, creating a super long cultural and tourism consumption golden week of about 10 days. Ctrip's forecast data shows that the combination of holiday sharing and spring break has ignited the popularity of this year's "May Day" tourism market. The demand for holiday travel has shown a significant growth trend compared to the same period last year, and the number of people and consumption are expected to reach a new high. Over time, there is more room for choice, and there are also more ways to explore tourism. For example, adding some "technology" to traditional routes. In fact, from well-established exhibition halls to local science popularization bases, from smart factories to immersive cultural and tourism scenes, technology is redefining our travel experience with diverse approaches. According to Ctrip's forecast data, the overall popularity of domestic technology tourism during the May Day holiday has increased compared to the same period last year, and more and more people are willing to spend more time exploring the technological heritage of a city. First tier and new first tier cities remain the absolute mainstay of technology tourism, with popularity far exceeding that of fourth - and fifth tier cities. However, it is worth noting that the flow of technology tourists is showing a trend of sinking and diversification, with the rapid rise of city level science museums and characteristic themed science museums. New popular venues such as Mianyang Science and Technology Museum, Shanghai Youlongshi Cultural Science Museum, and Nanchang Aerospace Science and Technology Museum have become new choices for holiday travel. The "May Day" technology tour is no longer concentrated in traditional first-line old exhibition halls, and industrial and factory tours have quietly become popular. Nowadays, factory tours are no longer the "check-in" mode of assembly line sightseeing. Tourists enter smart factories and science and technology innovation bases to experience the magic of intelligent manufacturing up close and get hands-on experience of black technology interactive projects. The Xiaomi car factory located in Beijing can be called the "top tier" of industrial tourism, having received nearly 20000 visitors in the highest month of this year. As a demonstration site for industrial tourism in Beijing, Xiaomi's automobile factory's fully automated production line can be regarded as a vivid epitome of Industry 4.0. Visiting the workshop is the most attractive part. Robot collaborative work, huge robotic arms dancing accurately, in the die-casting workshop, a steel giant with a locking force of up to 9100 tons can mold 72 parts in one piece in just 120 seconds. In addition to visiting, tourists can also test drive and unlock the thrill of "ground flying" at the go kart experience center. Gaoju Innovation in Shenzhen, Guangdong is a major supplier in the global fleet drone field, launching drone themed industrial tours and creating a low altitude science, education, culture, and tourism integration base. The base has a low altitude science popularization area, a transparent drone factory, and an immersive teaching area. Students can transform into "little engineers" and learn flight skills systematically through practical activities such as assembling drones and programming control. In addition, Haining Martian Kitchenware Smart Factory, Quanzhou Sightseeing Factory Matrix, Shanghai Jiangnan Shipbuilding Industry Tourism Base, Xi'an Geely Automobile "Black Light Factory", BYD Zhengzhou Circuit, Qingdao Beer Museum, Guangxi Liuzhou Luosifen Industrial Park, etc. are all popular destinations. If you want to go to these cities, why not take some time to explore. Technology itself is the core element of these tourist check-in destinations. But in other projects, technology exists as an enabler. Everything can be immersed. ”Zhou Xiao, Vice Chairman of the Immersive Culture and Tourism Industry Committee of the China Cultural Industry Association, told Science and Technology Daily reporters that immersion is a disruptive thinking that is changing the way we travel. Zhou Xiao has conducted on-site inspections of many immersive cultural and tourism projects. Under the empowerment of technology, immersive cultural and tourism can be divided into four types, each of which allows tourists to enter the scene and become a part of the project. Immersive atmosphere in the scene, creating a realistic space full of a sense of era or future, allowing people to "travel" in a second. Representative projects include Beijing Soreal Shougang First Blast Furnace Science Fiction Park, Xi'an Chang'an Twelve Hours, Changsha Wenheyou, Shangrao Wangxian Valley, Changchun Youyan, etc. Immersive visual effects, wrapping the entire project with lighting visual effects and real-life special effects, bringing a stunning visual experience. Representative projects include the Luoyang Supreme Dragon Gate Immersive Experience Museum, Chengdu ARTE Fully Immersive Art Museum, Changsha's "Blooming Orange Island · Jiang Tian Mu Xue", Jinan's "Baotu Night Painting", etc. Interpreting interactive immersion, combining immersive performances with interactive experiences, transforming you from a 'spectator' to a 'participant'. Representative projects include Zhengzhou's Henan Opera Fantasy City, Kaifeng's Wansui Mountain Martial Arts City, and Luoyang's "Tang Palace Banquet". Tourists can enter the plot, unlock exclusive storylines, and achieve a triple experience of "watching, playing, and entering the play". Immersive theme format, supported by a single vertical theme throughout the entire space. Typical representatives include Qingyuan Chimelong Forest Kingdom, Guangzhou Moon Cat City, Shanghai Bailian ZX Creative Fun Field, Beijing China National Geographic Exploration Center Dinosaur Planet, Fujian Taining Ganlu Bieyuan, etc. Technology is not cold, nor is it far away. When it meets travel, more possibilities collide. (Looking into the New Era)
