Religious venues in Langshan National Forest Park in Nantong reopened to the public on Aug 30 after being closed since July 29 due to the COVID-19 outbreak, local media outlets reported.
The reopened religious venues include Guangjiao Temple on Langshan Mountain, Putuo Temple on Junshan Mountain, and Wenshu Temple on Jianshan Mountain.
The ticket price for each venue is the same as before the outbreak – 50 yuan ($7.73) per person at the Langshan Mountain scenic area, 20 yuan per person at the Junshan Mountain scenic area, and 20 yuan per person at the Jianshan Mountain scenic area.
Although the epidemic has been brought under the control, the national park will continue to require online real-name ticket booking to limit the number of tourists.
A worker at the park said that visitors are required to present their health and travel history QR codes, have their temperatures taken before entering the park, wear masks, and maintain one meter of distance between each other during the trip.
