Mobile Toilets and Scenic Area Restrooms
Mobile toilets are portable restroom facilities suitable for scenic spots and other locations, with various types available in scenic areas, including the innovative 'tide toilets'.
Mobile toilets refer to facilities that can be moved as a whole and placed at locations with fixed or temporary needs to provide restroom services for the public and customers. They are suitable for stations, docks, tourist attractions, and other places. In terms of scenic area restrooms, there are multiple types of mobile toilets.
Apple Pod Toilets: They have a unique shape and customizable layout. They feature independent stalls, with a rain-proof area and public sinks in front. This design ensures users' privacy, provides convenient hand-washing facilities, and the rain-proof area also protects users from the weather to a certain extent, making them suitable for different environments in scenic areas.
Rustic-style Mobile Toilets: They have a beautiful ridged roof and are decorated with straw, giving them a strong rustic charm. There is a spacious rain-proof area in front, equipped with public sinks and beauty mirrors, and the men's restrooms are also equipped with partitions. This design is not only aesthetically pleasing but also fully functional, meeting the basic restroom needs of tourists in scenic areas. At the same time, their unique style can blend well with the natural environment of the scenic areas.
'Tide Toilets': This is an innovative form that sets up several 'gender-neutral stalls' and dynamically adjusts access rights based on real-time foot traffic using movable signs or lockable sliding doors. For example, after the 'tide toilets' were put into use in Qinghai's Heidushan Scenic Area, the waiting time for women during peak hours was reduced from more than 30 minutes to less than 10 minutes, effectively addressing the long queues of women during tourist peaks. However, previously, a 'tide toilet' in Huizhou West Lake Scenic Area in Guangdong caused controversy due to its freely movable signs at the entrance. Currently, all the movable signs of the involved tide toilets have been removed and will soon be replaced with fixed slot-type signs.
