Considering the influence of pedestrian characteristics, facility conditions and queue length, a pedestrian cellular automaton model is constructed to study the pedestrian selection behavior and traffic efficiency in stereoscopic facilities. It is found that pedestrian choice behavior is closely related to individual characteristics, queue length, and stairway height, but not to whether pedestrians are accompanied or not. Pedestrian walking speed is related to stereoscopic facilities and the size of pedestrian flow. Generally, the pedestrian speed increases as the height of the stair decreases, the width increases, and the flow of people decrease. However, when the width of the stairs increases to a certain value, the pedestrian speed tends to be stable. Moreover, although the pedestrian speed decreases as the height of the stair increases, it increases slightly as one approaches the exit.
