Replace with a new brand

At present, Hangzhou zoo has completed the renovation

In carrying out the activities of striving for excellence, the park always adheres to the principle of service-oriented, and actively explores and innovates. In order to make tourists have a better experience, the park has greatly transformed the animal signs of the whole park, highlighting new ideas in both content and form

There are nearly 200 kinds of rare animals on display in the zoo. Apart from professionals and animal lovers, it's really difficult to name all the animals. Most of the time, we have to rely on the animal signs in front of the cage. Parents who take their babies to the zoo pay special attention to this.

People and tourists who often come to the zoo should have found that the animal signs in the zoo are constantly innovating. First of all, in terms of content, based on a traditional animal photo with its English name, scientific name and basic information, it enriches the introduction of animal habitat, animal morphology, living habits and breeding protection, and adds a large number of beautiful pictures. Then, in terms of modeling, it breaks the previous four square model of signboards to carry out personalized design for different exhibition areas, and selects different models of signboards according to the animal characteristics of different exhibition areas. For example, the signboard of wading bird exhibition area adopts the model of flamingo, the songbird hall adopts the model of a singing bird, the small animal garden adopts the model of fox, the grass garden adopts the model of deer, and the lion, tiger and monkey are all the real masters The shape of Recently, another new type of signboard has been installed in Yuanyang pool and Youqin lake. From a distance, the new sign looks like a horizontal warp wheel. The roller shape enables tourists to choose the animal knowledge they need. In this way, it breaks the previous' fixed 'convention. It is suitable for the situation that many animals are scattered and the display position is not fixed in the lake exhibition area. It also adds interest. Up to now, our garden has completed more than 170 pieces Update of Mingpai.

The "great transformation" of the sign matches the planning and transformation of the whole park and breaks the old "rules". It is an innovative attempt. On the one hand, it improves the viewing effect and beautifies the sightseeing environment. On the other hand, it adds fun. We hope to attract tourists to pay more attention to the content of the sign and spread more animal knowledge and protection education ideas Break, make the tourist's tour motivation from simple curiosity to exploratory gradually change.
