Tourism: Great Wall management (China Daily) Updated: 2006-04-14 15:21
As local governments try to re-acquire management rights to different

Yanqing County in Beijing Municipality recently regained the rights to the
Badaling section, a renowned scenic spot northwest of Beijing, the Xinhua News
Agency reported.
In 1997, a joint venture acquired the management right to most of the
Badaling section, which extends about 7.6 kilometres, and listed it on the Hong
Kong market. (For more biz stories, please visit Industry Updates) |
