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."
。Vistra Energy是一家综合零售电力和发电公司,为美国21个州的400万住宅、商业和工业零售客户提供服务。此次火灾于1月16日下午3时开始,火势猛烈,浓烟滚滚。据蒙特雷县发言人称,截至1月17日凌晨,火势已得到一定程度的控制,并未蔓延到电厂以外。目前,火灾原因正在调查中,Vistra Energy在一份声明中表示,在发现火灾后,现场所有人都已安全撤离。起火设施附近另有一个由PG&E公司独立运营的Elkhorn储能项目,该项目采用特斯拉的256个Megapack电池单元,但特斯拉的电池或设施并未起火。对于外界盛传的特斯拉电池引发火灾,特斯拉CEO埃隆·马斯克通过社交媒体紧急辟谣称,“特斯拉与此次事故无关,所有Megapack设备运行良好”。不过外界之所以怀疑Megapack,是因为2022年9月,莫斯兰丁的PG&E Elkhorn储能项目曾发生火灾,导致1号公路关闭达12小时。

E | 后续调查发现,此次事故是由该项目中256个Megapack单元里的一个通风口防护罩安装不当引发的,雨水渗入电池后造成了故障。外媒分析,此次火灾再次引发了对储能设施安全性的关注,尤其是在干燥气候条件下,储能设施的火灾风险需要进一步评估和管理。澎湃新闻记者 贺梨萍(本文来自澎湃新闻,更多原创资讯请下载“澎湃新闻”APP)。
