Misplaced tourism development destroys ecology and the last pure land of Yunnan is catastrophic

Xiagui Hot Spring in Shangri-La County, Yunnan Province, is a modern hot spring The typical geological landscape formed by hot springs is of great ornamental value and scientific research value. The fumaroles (hot gas) holes in the scenic area are particularly rare. However, during the tourism development process, without understanding the geological structure and laws of the fumaroles, developers attempted to turn the fumaroles into "sauna" places, resulting in serious damage to the rare tourist geological landscape. Another underground spring in the county, Tianshengqiao "Colorful Spring", has lost the natural conditions for the reproduction of the "Colorful Spring" due to "modern" decoration.

Some places in Shangri-La, the pure land in the southwest, cannot escape disaster under the tide of tourism development. Many experts from the "Chinese Landscape Architecture Society" pointed out that in recent years, misplaced development in some places has led to the proliferation of artificialization, commercialization, and urbanization in many national scenic spots, and some scenic spots are transforming into amusement parks for eating, drinking, and having fun. field, the natural ecosystem has suffered unprecedented damage.

For example, Lijiang Jade Dragon Snow Mountain has three cableways, each of which extends into the core area of ??the nature reserve. Among them, the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain Cableway, which is nearly 3,000 meters long, extends to the snow mountain at an altitude of 4,506 meters, transporting 426 passengers per hour in one direction. The construction and operation of these ropeways have brought ecological disaster to the protected area. The influx of a large number of tourists has damaged the ancient glaciers, and some glaciers have begun to melt; alpine vegetation and wild flowers have been trampled and destroyed by tourists; the number of wild animals has decreased sharply, and rare animals that existed during the planning are now hard to find. . The speed of destruction of the ecological environment of Jade Dragon Snow Mountain has surprised experts from all over the world.

What is even more serious is that some scenic spots are developed without planning.
