At the Longhua Urban Hall, visitors marveled at the tech-enabled exhibition hall, which used creative ways to tell Longhua’s past and present development stories. While strolling through the hall, visitors used interactive screens to gather information and immerse themselves in the district’s smart city scenarios through a 3-D movie, drones, robots and other high-tech devices made by Longhua companies. They also had fun playing with a so-called metaverse parallel box, which allowed users to create hyper realistic and life-size parallel image of themselves in the box.步入龙华城市客厅，参观者对展厅的科技化水平纷纷表示惊叹。龙华城市客厅是龙华区在践行“数字龙华”战略大背景下，打造的一座坐标未来的城市展览馆，它全面深入的讲述了龙华建区历史、发展之路、规划建设和重点产业布局等内容。穿行在科技感十足的展览厅，外籍参观者们沉浸其中，或使用互动屏幕获取信息，或观看3D电影了解龙华未来的智能城市场景，或近距离观察由辖区公司生产的无人机、机器人等高科技产品。他们还饶有兴致地玩起了元宇宙全息仓，纷纷和全息仓里自己的平行影像合影留念。
