Where is the elevator that leads to 3,000 meters under the sea?

The Baiheliang Underwater Museum in Fuling District, Chongqing is the first underwater museum in the world. Baiheliang Museum is located under the water on the south bank of the Yangtze River on Binjiang Road. For underwater visits, you need to take a long underwater elevator to the bottom of the river. It is similar to Ocean World, except that Ocean World is about ornamental fish, while Baiheliang Museum is about art.

The first underwater escalator (Taiwan Province, China) is located in Haolian Ocean Park, Taiwan Province. You can see many colorful fish and other aquatic animals swimming above your head.

Extended information

The underwater museum is 40 meters underwater and has an extremely special environment. To enter the underwater museum, you must go through a flight-like security check. Then step on the 88-meter-long elevator and enter the water depth of 40 meters. After passing through a straight traffic corridor of about 150 meters, passing through a steel hatch about one meter wide and half a meter thick, you enter a circular tour corridor more than 60 meters long.

There are 23 half-meter-deep underwater windows on one side of the corridor. Looking from the window, you can see stone fish, book sculptures, etc. All are displayed before us. The latest inscription is only one meter away, and the farthest is only about eight meters. Six rows of more than 10,000 energy-saving lamps are installed around the underwater inscription to ensure that tourists can clearly see the inscription.

28 rotatable cameras are also installed in the water outside the window. Visitors can adjust and appreciate the details of the inscription through the touch screen, and can also mobilize video data related to the landscape in front of them through the computer database. If tourists are diving enthusiasts, they can also have close contact with the inscriptions in the water. Tourists who are still not satisfied can also go to the shore museum to read the inscriptions from Baiheliang.

The reporter learned that thanks to the excellent safety measures of the underwater museum, a visit to the underwater museum will not be affected by passing ships at all, and your own safety can also be guaranteed. The no-navigation and no-parking measures fully protect the 10,000 square meters of water around the underwater protection body.
