Museums, films, shadow play and frescos recounting Yugong's life have been created for visitors to experience the spirit of the story's character up close. Carrying poles and wheelbarrows are also available for those who want to feel "how it is like to move a mountain". In future, infrastructure at the facility and around will likely be improved to cater to the patriotism education.
Some 300 standard rooms and 40 sets of boutique homestays will be developed.
A large-scale conference site will also be built, with the largest room able to house up to 10,000 people.
Moving upward from the base of the mountain, one can see cypress trees near the Yangtai Palace, a hall inside which is thought to be the largest timber structure of the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644) in Henan. Many visitors are seen burning incense sticks and praying at the Taoist hall. The reliefs on stones in the hall feature dragons and other mythical figures.
