Before the Chinese New Year, the World Tree's treehouse tourism program was officially opened to tourists.

Watered with sufficient nutrient solution, the giant tree grows at an astonishing rate of about 10 meters per month to its current height of 260 meters, which is equivalent to a 50-storey building. The diameter of the trunk reaches 44 meters, the largest branch diameter is 16 meters, and the canopy area reaches 29 acres.

Since September last year, a construction team has been building various treehouses on the World Tree, using special materials and design solutions to accommodate the growth of the World Tree.

Deng Yijiang is a senior executive of Taoyuan Group, he has studied and worked in Europe for a total of 10 years, and even his wife is a Dutchman.

When he was abroad, there was a big tree in the backyard of his house, and after the two children would run away, he would build a small tree house on the big tree, which was very popular with the children.

This was actually a dream of Deng Yijiang when he was a child, but he didn't have this condition at that time.

After returning to China, he has been very busy with work because he has just taken over, and he has not been with his family for a while, so he is ready to bring a big surprise to his family after learning about the "World Tree" tourism project within the group.

On the first day of the opening of the World Tree, taking advantage of the long Spring Festival holiday, Deng Yijiang brought his family over and had a good experience as the first batch of tourists.

According to the regulations, as an employee of the four major groups, entering the World Tree is not only a half-price ticket, but also the right to have priority in the estimated room.

The World Tree is bare below 180 meters, and the branches grow in the upper half, and visitors want to climb the canopy. It is necessary to enter the hollow trunk first. Then climb the stairs.

Of course. The World Tree also has an elevator, but it's generally used to transport supplies, and with the fairytale airroot staircase, no tourists want to take the elevator.

After Deng Yijiang entered the heart of the tree, he took his little daughter's hand and watched around as he walked.

Inside the trunk grew a number of aerial roots that zigzagged from the crown to the ground, and from these aerial roots, a ladder with railings was built. Visitors can walk directly to the canopy.

The reason why the World Tree grows so fast has a lot to do with the hollow trunk, otherwise the trunk with a diameter of 44 meters, according to the laws of nature, may grow for thousands of years.

The perimeter of the ladder railing is decorated with lights, and the whole space is not dim, but because of the colorful and gorgeous lights, it reflects dreamlike colors, as if you have entered another mysterious world.

All the lucky tourists who entered the first batch were amazed, and Deng Yijiang was also ashamed of his lack of imagination. It's a masterpiece.

After climbing the canopy, Tang Zhiqi's family went to the hotel to settle down first.

A hotel built between the branches of a tree. The name is "World Treehouse Hotel".

Building a hotel on a tree is not a new tree, there are places like this all over the world.

But there is no doubt that the World Tree's treehouse is unique, the most magnificent, the most peculiar and the most fairytale.

The hotel has a total of 64 rooms, both studios and suites, and the price of a single room exceeds that of a five-star hotel's presidential suite, and as for the treehouse suite, it is several times more expensive.

Although the prices are sky-high, from the day it opens, there are countless tourists from all over the world who want to book a room here, often waiting until weeks later.

The rooms of the Tree House Inn, depending on the distribution of the branches, are scattered in different locations, and the exterior decorations are all bark and leaves, which cannot be seen from a distance.

The interior of the rooms is much larger than other tree houses in the world, and each room has a small balcony or rooftop observation deck, all with excellent views.

Visitors can look through the pine branches and leaves, and can see the Oriental New City in the distance, the nearby film and television city, and the magnificent scenery such as sunrise and sunset.

Deng Yijiang booked a two-storey suite, with a room on the upper and lower floors, a separate toilet and a large balcony, with a view of the mountains and the Oriental New City in the distance.

With Deng Yijiang's annual salary, plus a half-price discount, it is still very easy to stay on this for one night.

The two children who had just started elementary school were so happy that they were rolling on the bed for a while, and then lying on the balcony and pointing.

At the beginning, the family was still a little scared, after all, it was 200 meters in mid-air, and if they fell, they would only end up with broken bones.

However, the safety measures on the World Tree are in place, and the tree is so large that it has turned the concept of "tree" upside down, so visitors will quickly get used to it.

Before he came, Deng Yijiang could hardly imagine that their tree house and the very wide road under their feet were actually built on a single branch!

In addition to the hotel, the World Tree has a bar, a small square, a tourist restaurant, a swimming pool, a bungee jumping platform and tree climbing, which are spread over the branches.

In order not to spoil the natural scenery of the World Tree, all man-made structures are camouflaged on the outside, and some use a large amount of transparent materials.

Connecting the various man-made buildings is a 2,200-meter-long tree branch sightseeing road that surrounds the entire trunk of the tree, this sightseeing road carved out on the branches, the lowest point is also 190 meters above the ground, and the railings on both sides are some of the quaint and natural rattan design, and some are of transparent material design.

Because the branches are thick enough, the road surface is about 3-5 meters wide, and in order not to harm the World Tree, the road is not smooth, although it is not flat, but it is also very stable.

After controlling the number of tourists climbing the tree, it seems to be very relaxed.

Between several main branches, there are also 6 rope bridges and 5 escalators.

After a tour of the road in the morning, Deng Yijiang and his family had lunch at the restaurant and went to the swimming pool in the afternoon.

The New Year in Viet An is still very cold, generally less than 10 degrees Celsius, so the swimming pool above the World Tree is at a constant temperature in winter.

The pool is 202 meters high above the ground, and basically uses nano-transparent materials, which are shaped like a glass bowl, and you can clearly see the scene on the ground when you swim in the pool, and the swimmers are in the sky.

With this design, people who want to go into the water need to have some guts, but there is no need to worry about safety.

The swimming pool is made of aerospace composite materials, which is light in weight and high in strength, as long as it is 3 cm thick, it cannot be pierced by ordinary shells.

The wood of the World Tree is very tough, comparable to steel, and the branches with a diameter of more than 15 meters can be carried by hundreds of tons, not to mention dozens of tons of water.

The World Tree's bungee jumping platform is 223 meters high, ranking fourth highest in the world, and this height is still slowly rising every day, and will soon surpass the world's third highest bungee jumping platform, and in the future, it will surpass the glass bridge bungee platform in Zhangjiajie to become the world's first.

Such a height can only be a game for the brave, which is enough to make people deeply experience the visual stimulation and weightlessness pleasure that falls from the sky.

In addition to bungee jumping, the World Tree also has an extreme leisure activity, which is tree climbing.

Originated in the 80s of the last century, tree climbing is a thrilling outdoor sport that allows people to get closer to the natural environment and feel the vigorous vitality contained in the big trees.

There are now many enthusiasts around the world, many universities even offer special courses, in addition to professional international tree climbing competitions, which have been held for 39 years.

After the birth of the World Tree, it naturally became a paradise for many tree climbing enthusiasts.

Climbing the World Tree is actually similar to rock climbing, because the trunk is more than 44 meters in diameter, the place where the climber touches is very flat, and the bark is so hard that it is difficult to cut with a knife, and there are cracks that make it easy to climb.

With safety measures in place, climbing this unique giant tree has become a pleasure and challenge for many people.

However, Deng Yijiang has deep myopia, can't bungee jump, can't climb trees, and the family can only look at the side and cheer people on.

As soon as the World Tree opened, it immediately attracted the attention of the whole world, and anyone who had a childhood dream wanted to visit the World Tree, and it would be wonderful to be able to stay for one night.

There are too many tourists who come here, and in order to be safe and not crowded, the number of tourists on the tree is strictly controlled, so the tourists who do not stay are limited to one hour, and if it exceeds an hour, they will be charged separately.

Although the development of the World Tree was popular, it attracted the opposition of many plant experts and environmentalists, who believed that the construction of these attractions and the many human activities had caused harm to the giant trees.

As a unique and magical plant in the world, the World Tree should be protected in the most comprehensive way, not just to make money.

In response to the opposition of many people, the Taoyuan Group, which was responsible for the development, responded that the World Tree is not a natural species, but the scientific research results of the Taoyuan Group, and there is a reason to develop it commercially.

Moreover, it has been proven that the damage caused by these tourism projects to the giant trees is minimal, and they will soon be repaired as they grow. (To be continued......)
