At the beginning, our designers wanted to create a more unique and interesting toilet, which would be integrated with the cultural creativity and entertainment of our scenic spot, as a check-in point for tourists, but we did not consider it carefully.
Now, in the face of netizens' doubts about the function of use, we have now removed the swing of the Internet celebrity "swing toilet" and restored it to a normal toilet.
I also hope that all netizens will give us a chance to innovate and correct mistakes.
[Explanation] It is understood that the "swing" toilet is located in the "Wonderful Toilet Experience Hall" in the scenic spot. In addition to ordinary toilets, there are several special toilets such as "swing toilets", "ocean toilets" and "mirror toilets" in the museum. .
In the "swing toilet", there is a "swing" above the squatting toilet, which consists of a wooden board with a hollow in the middle and four ropes.
If tourists want to use the toilet here, they need to sit on the swing, or keep the swing away.
[Explanation] When these special toilets were just launched, some tourists once said that it was difficult to accept such toilets and would choose the ordinary toilets on the side.
But there are also tourists who say that this kind of whimsical toilet makes them interesting.
[Explanation] At the same time, the relevant person in charge of the scenic spot said that the "swing toilet" is used by tourists to punch in and take pictures most of the time. After the cleaners find that some tourists use the "swing toilet", they will clean and disinfect them as soon as possible.
The reason why such a special toilet is built is to let tourists experience and understand toilet culture, and to advocate that everyone enjoy a clean, comfortable and hygienic environment.
In the future, the scenic spot will build more reasonable and creative toilets under the condition of protecting the privacy of tourists to make it easier for tourists to use the toilet.
