April 18 is the first day of the price increase of the seven small archways and Large Seven-hole Bridge Scenic Resort Bridge scenic spots in Libo, Guizhou, which coincides with Saturday. The reporter saw that tourists are almost the same as in previous weekends, and they can't see the impact of ticket price increases. In Raya Waterfall, Water Forest, Yuanyang Lake and Tianshengqiao, the reporter saw crowds of tourists everywhere, and the occupancy rate of county hotels rose instead of falling, basically maintaining the level of the previous two weeks. Reportedly, Libo Zhangjiang National Key Scenic Spot, including seven small archways and Large Seven-hole Bridge Scenic Resort Bridge Scenic Spot, is the first world natural heritage site in Guizhou Province and the sixth in China. Tickets for scenic spots have not been adjusted for seven years since April 2002. However, the scenic spot is constantly improving the resources of scenic spots and the quality of tourist areas, and has successively developed a number of scenic spots with high ornamental value, such as Wild Pig Forest, Feiyun Cave, Aquatic Forest Wetland, Cuigu Waterfall and Large Seven-hole Bridge Scenic Resort Bridge Scenic Area Tang Meng Bay. Especially after the successful application for World Heritage, the cost of protection and management of scenic spots has increased significantly. At the same time, from 2005 to 2007, the scenic spot invested165438+48 million yuan through loans, while the total ticket price of Qixiao archway and Dalian scenic spot was only 85 yuan, which was obviously low and could not make ends meet. In view of the above reasons, with the approval of Guizhou Provincial Price Bureau, Qiannan Prefecture adjusted the tickets for the major and minor archways in Libo from April 18, 2009, and the tickets for the two scenic spots were increased from the original 85 yuan to 165 yuan, among which the tickets for the seven minor archways were adjusted from the original 55 yuan to 1 10 yuan, and the tickets for Tiandong were cancelled. Tickets for the scenic spots of the large-scale Seven-hole Bridge were adjusted from 30 yuan to 55 yuan, which nearly doubled. It is understood that the ticket prices of Libo and Qixiaopaifang scenic spots have increased, but the number of tourists has not decreased, and the popularity is still very strong, mainly due to various positive stimulus measures recently taken by Qiannan Prefecture and Libo County. At the same time, other preferential measures will be introduced. For example, students can enjoy a 50% discount when purchasing tickets with their student ID cards, and anyone can enjoy a 60% discount when purchasing tickets with Libo airport tickets. According to the newly issued Interim Measures for the Group Purchase and Pre-sale of Tickets for Zhangjiang Scenic Spot in Libo, travel agencies with legal group qualification can enjoy a 50% discount if they purchase more than 50,000 tickets for Seven Small Arch and various scenic spots in Dalian at one time. In addition, national model workers, disabled soldiers, servicemen, disabled people, families of martyrs, people commended by state ministries, people over 60 years old, journalists, general managers of travel agencies, tour guides, and children under 1.2 meters in height can enjoy preferential treatment for visiting scenic spots in seven small arches.
