The given map illustrates an active mining area before and after a plan of redevelopment that transformed it into a tourist attraction. It can be seen that this area has been modernized due to more facilities and services, as well as improving the transportation.
In terms of the western area, the western area which used to be place for an office and a staff changing room has been demolished and converted into a museum. However, the car park which is located in the southwest of the map remains completely unchanged. In addition, the entrance to the underground mine which was accessible only by workers is now opened for visitors.
Regarding the center area, there is a footpath which has been built around the center area. To serve more travelers, tourism facilities like cafe and souvenir shop have been built in the area where the medical room and lorry park used to be. Furthermore, located in east of the map, two waste tips were removed to give place for digger driving track, picnic area and children’s play area.
