Wulingyuan Visitor Center project breaks ground
On October 18, the Wulingyuan District Visitor Center and Sign Gate·Nine Courtyards and Ten Streets, a leading project to improve Zhangjiajie’s tourism quality, started construction. The total investment in the project is nearly 700 million yuan, and it is expected to be fully opened to tourists in early 2017.
Wulingyuan District Visitor Center and Sign Gate·Jiuyuan Ten Streets is a key project at the provincial, municipal and district levels. It is located at the Wujiayu Ticket Station in Wulingyuan District. The total construction area of the project is 100,000 square meters. It uses Zhangjiajie’s unique Xilanka pattern as its constituent elements to form nine relatively independent but integrated courtyards and ten streets and lanes that lead directly to the mountain gate.
Multiple functions integrated upon completion
After the project is completed, it will be the largest comprehensive tourism service body in domestic scenic spots that integrates multiple functions such as underground parking lots, tourist distribution squares, ticket and travel route services, and comprehensive commercial services. It will greatly improve the quality of tourism reception in the core scenic spot of Wulingyuan, a world natural heritage.
