As one of two candidate institutions recommended by Chinese Government to UNESCO, the Longhushan Geopark Museum applied for a member of Global Geoparks Network officially. Grasping this chance, the Longhushan Scenic Area invested over RMB8,000,000 in building the domestically first-class Danxia Geomuseum where the geological knowledge of Danxia landform is disseminated to tourists via various ways such as exhibition board, graph, caption, specimen, model, movie, television and information system.
