In the age of science and technology, you don't even know "meta-tourism"!?

After experiencing the closure of the city due to the new crown epidemic and the economic recovery after the unblocking, the vast majority of people have not traveled abroad for nearly three years. During this year's holiday season, the number of Chinese tourists alone reached 274 million. It can be seen that after the epidemic, the economy has recovered, and people's travel needs have increased sharply. The scenic spots in popular cities are almost overcrowded.

This wave of "tourism fever" is not only popular in real life but also popular in the virtual world. "Meta travel" is also very popular now. People can wear VR or XR glasses at home to freely travel to scenic spots around the world, which greatly satisfies those travelers who don't have time to travel or don't want to be crowded.

1. So, what is metaverse travel?

It refers to providing "on call" and immersive tourism service experience in the virtual world through digital twin modeling, 3D rendering, holographic imaging, and other technical means. The establishment of 3D digital space in the scenic area can provide a low-cost, convenient, immersive, immersive, and non-contact 360-degree tour experience for tourists in the metaverse.

For example, if you want to travel to a certain place but cannot go there for some reason, you can wear the device and enter the virtual universe, choose the place you want to go, and have an immersive exploration journey.

2. What is the charm of metaverse travel?

The reason why the virtual universe is so "hot" after travel is because it does have some attractive features, such as:

• Authenticity and sense of freedom: Metaverse travel brings travelers an immersive feeling through highly realistic images, sound effects, and interactivity, allowing travelers to freely explore various attractions and locations in the virtual universe as if they were real.
• Beyond the limitations of reality: virtual universe travel allows people to explore sights and unknown places across time, space, and geography, without the time, place, and budget constraints faced by real travel.
• Interaction and social interaction: In metaverse travel, people can interact with other travelers in real-time, share travel experiences, and communicate socially. This interactive and social experience increases engagement and fun.
• Cost saving and environmental protection: Metaverse travel does not require actual travel expenses, which can save travel costs and reduce the impact on the environment. In addition, virtual universe travel can also encourage people to be more aware of the importance of environmentally friendly and sustainable travel.
• Design personalization and creativity: In metaverse travel, travelers can freely choose and design their own virtual identities and travel routes, showing personal creativity and uniqueness.

3. What is the development prospect of metaverse travel?

Virtual universe travel is also an inevitable trend, and major tourism bureaus have launched their own virtual universe travel plans. In today's digital society, creating your own unique digital attractions IP is the driving force of the times.

For example, Zhangjiajie, a famous tourist city in Hunan, is the world's first Metaverse cooperation scenic spot. In 2021 the world's first scenic virtual universe platform, "Zhangjiajie Planet," will be launched.

On November 16, 2021, Disney announced the grand "Metaverse" strategy and began to explore how to unlock the "Metaverse" technology in the Disneyland amusement project portfolio to create a new park.

The potential of the virtual universe itself is unlimited, and virtual universe travel is developing rapidly under this wave of the "travel craze." In the future, we may see more attractions in the virtual world. This is a novel field and a new business opportunity for local tourism bureaus, and companies engaged in virtual universe business, and even people who love to travel.
