Scene stealers
Some scenic spots nationwide have raised the prices of entry tickets just before the golden week of National Day holiday. Some have been increased by 70 percent. This is not just bad news for millions of residents readying for a trip during the holidays, but reveals some foundational problems that need to be fixed with the administration of scenic spots.
Who has the say or who should have the say over the administration of scenic spots? This is a question that needs to be clarified first.
The National Development and Reform Commission released a document this week, prohibiting scenic spots from increasing entrance ticket prices. Ten scenic spots in South China's Guangdong province have assured that their entry ticket prices will remain unchanged.
