大理開始徵收維護費

Visitors to the ancient city of Dali, Yunnan, will be charged an entrance fee starting Sept 1 this year to cover maintenance costs, the ancient city protection administration bureau announced Saturday. The ancient city will charge RMB30 for every tourist visiting the site with travel agents and will collect 1% of business income generated by shops and stalls in the city.

雲南大理市古城保護管理局30日公佈，將從今年9月1日起向遊客徵收大理古城維護費，跟團遊客每人次30元，古城內商戶、攤位則按營業收入1%收取。

Individual travelers are free of charge as long as they don't enter several particular scenic spots in the city.

自由行的遊客，只要不進入特定景區，無需繳納古城維護費。

The 2.25-sq-km ancient city has a history of over 1,200 years and received over 5m tourists in 2014.

大理古城佔地面積2.25平方公里，已有1200多年的歷史，去年接待遊客500多萬。
