INTRODUCTION
The visitor center is the first phase amenity project in the Baiyinkulun Steppe & Volcano Tourism Resort. Currently, the main structure has been completed and opened this winter. It is used as a multifunction reception building. The concept of wandering the volcano was achieved because of the original terrain at the site, a dynamic circulation transforming the difference in height into a full-view route for experiencing the volcanos.
