Admission prices to 69 tourist attractions and museums in Shanghai have been cut in half for the first week of the 2020 Shanghai Tourism Festival, according to the Shanghai Municipal Administration of Culture and Tourism.
Six tourist attractions in Jiading are among those to do so, including Guyi Garden, the Shanghai International Circuit, and Shanghai Malu Grape Theme Park.
Employees at Guyi Garden said that due to the discount, it received more than 2,000 visitors on Sept 12, an increase of 50 percent over the previous day.
The 2020 Shanghai Tourism Festival, which is being held from Sept 12 to 27, will end a week earlier than usual due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
