As heavy rain associated with Typhoon Dolphin continued to affect large parts of China, an increasing number of people were turning to immersive disaster simulations to experience extreme weather scenarios in a controlled environment at the Lvxing Disaster Simulation Training Center in Hangzhou, East China's Zhejiang Province. 
At the country's first natural disaster simulation venue, adult participants pay 899 yuan ($133) per person to virtually confront situations such as typhoons, urban flooding and sudden flash floods, to gain a sense of what such emergencies might feel like.
Wang Kuanghan, operator of the training center, told the Global Times that the center is designed to allow people to experience the dangers of natural disasters in a safe and controlled environment, while raising awareness of the need to respect nature and avoid potential risks.
"We hope to pass on the experience we gained from encountering natural disasters during our years of traveling around the world," Wang said. "Beyond teaching people how to respond when natural disasters strike, what is more important is cultivating an awareness of how to avoid risks." 
As of July, the center had received more than 70,000 visits this year for hands-on experiences, including tourists as well as companies and professional rescue teams that come for training. The number is higher than the same period in 2025, he noted. 
Fu Minya, a Hangzhou-based office worker, told the Global Times that she has heard of the center and would like to give it a try. 
"The frequent news reports of natural disasters in recent weeks have reminded people of how small and vulnerable we are in the face of nature's forces," she said. 
After Typhoon Dolphin made landfall in China in early August, its remnant impact brought downpours to several provinces. Chinese authorities previously earmarked 80 million yuan to support flood and geological disaster relief efforts in the Central China's Henan and Hubei provinces and East China's Anhui Province, the Xinhua News Agency reported. 
The flash flood simulation is one of the most intense experiences the center offers. Participants stand in a simulated river channel as an instructor presses a button, releasing around 500 tons of water from above. Within just three seconds, many participants are knocked off their feet, left tumbling in the rushing water and being swept toward the protective wall at the end of the channel.
"Real flash floods move even faster," said Wang. "When the water rises above knee level, it is almost impossible for an adult to remain standing. Many people instinctively think they should swim to escape, but that can be fatal."
Flash floods carry mud, branches and rocks that can quickly entangle your arms and legs. The right thing to do is to watch for warning signs of an impending flash flood, move away from the riverbank before the flash flood occurs, and quickly evacuate to higher ground on either side, he said. 
In another exercise, several participants slog ahead holding each other's arms as the facility simulates winds reaching speeds of up to 165 kilometers per hour, as well as torrential rain.
However, there are concerns that simulated disasters could trivialize the suffering of disaster victims and turn the trauma of real-life disasters into entertainment.
This is a promising new niche in urban cultural tourism, Yu Jinlong, a Beijing-based cultural scholar, told the Global Times on Wednesday. 
By striking the right balance between entertainment and public education while strictly adhering to safety protocols, such facilities can become more than just viral check-in destinations; they can serve as a replicable platform for public emergency education, Yu noted. 
In the past, disaster-prevention education largely relied on display boards and lectures, which often made it difficult for people to develop an intuitive understanding of the dangers involved, Yu said. 
Real-life simulations, by contrast, allow participants to experience firsthand the destructive force of typhoons and flash floods, turning abstract knowledge into tangible memories. This is where such facilities can offer unique social value, making them particularly suitable for educational programs for young people and emergency-response training for businesses and institutions, he said. 
The experience can be impactful, but it should not be reduced to a sensationalist spectacle. Only by combining immersive experiences with practical self-rescue training and maintaining strict safety standards can this emerging model continue to serve as a meaningful platform for public disaster-prevention education, Yu noted. 
Statistics show that 95 percent of people rescued from natural disasters survive through self-rescue, Wang said. "If you are swept away by water or hit by strong winds here, you will develop a much deeper understanding of how to respond to hazards and protect yourself."

三 |          三月是传统开学季，大学将迎来新生，中小学生也将返校。因此三月公共交通网络会承受重压。

四 | 交通局预计今年3月会特别繁忙，每周的公交、火车和轮渡使用量将接近200万人次。         Advertise with us          交通局向英文《先驱报》提供了一份2月奥克兰最拥堵道路的最新资料。如果您需要使用交通工具，以下道路在工作日可能给您带来通行的噩梦：          早高峰          Southern Motorway，从East Tāmaki到Greenlane的北向路段；          Northwestern Motorway，从Royal Oak到St Lukes的东向路段；          Northern Motorway，从Greville到Esmonde的南向路段；          20号高速（SH20），从Manukau到Māngere的北向路段。

五 |          晚高峰          Southern Motorway，从从Princes到Greenlane的北向路段；          20号高速和1号高速交汇的路口和更南段；          Central Motorway Junction到Highbrook的南向路段；          20号高速，Cavendish到Coronation的北向路段。         以上路段的拥堵率都达到50%以上。         由于道路繁忙和铁路故障频发，乘坐公共交通往返市中心的通勤时间将大大延长。         一位通勤者表示，她从Glen Eden到市中心上班要花两个小时，下班也是如此。         “我早上5:50离开家，开车去Glen Eden火车站的停车换乘处。在我乘火车前往New Lynn再乘公交前往市中心的Federal St（离我工作地点仅几步之遥）之前，可能会遇到两到三趟火车被取消，”这位不愿透露姓名的女士说。         “我受够了。现在比一年前糟多了，当时我可以在40分钟内上下班。”她说Glen Eden火车站的电子告示牌两周前因故障被拆除，至今还没有修好。

六 |          另一位通勤者表示，上周他从Te Atatū South去市中心上班花了1小时45分钟。其中公交行驶了45分钟，在路上堵停了1小时。         “这太可怕了。….公共交通本来是为了让城市变得更好，而不是更糟，”该男子说第二天他骑自行车去上班，结果只花了45分钟。         奥克兰交通局增长和优化经理Richard Harrison表示，最近客流量已经达到疫情后的最高水平。这是预料之中的，而且属于每年3月的固定问题。
