I used to charge according to my surname, and I could get free admission by showing my surname. Have you been to this scenic spot in China?

The unique college entrance examination has also come to an end, and it is also the peak moment of domestic tourism. After the college entrance examination, there is actually a wave of disdain for tourism in the country. After studying hard for more than 10 years, many parents will take this time to take their children to travel to relax and relieve the previous tension and hardship. Therefore, under this wave, Many scenic spots will launch discount activities to attract tourists to travel, and the strength of the discounts is directly related to tourists' enthusiasm for traveling.

However, how to control the strength of discounts is also a science. If the discounts are too strong, it will have a bad impact on the revenue of the scenic spot, but if the discounts are too small, it will not be attractive. An embarrassing situation that makes tourists reluctant to come. Therefore, there are many failed cases of tourist discounts in domestic scenic spots, with loud thunder but little rain. However, there are also some scenic spots that are relatively unique. Their travel discounts attract many tourists to go there. For example, this most "willful" scenic spot in the country once charged fees according to the form, and the results were not small.

01 The most "willful" scenic spot in China is China's Taoist Holy Land

Many people may be curious whether there are really scenic spots that charge by surname? In fact, there has been such a scenic spot. This scenic spot is Laojun Mountain in Luoyang, Henan. It was originally called Jingshi Mountain. It is located in Luanchuan County of Luoyang, the ancient capital of the Thirteenth Dynasty. It is 3 kilometers southeast of the county and 800 miles away from the Funiu Mountains. the main peak. It is a national 5A-level scenic spot, a world geological park, a national nature reserve, a holy place for Taoist believers in the north, and an outstanding representative of the mountains and rivers in the Central Plains.

I believe many people know that Laojun refers to Taishang Laojun, who is the founder of Taoism. It is said that Laozi once went to live in seclusion here to practice, so he received the imperial title during the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty. , the "Tieding Laojun Temple" was built on the top of Jingshi Mountain, and was named "Laojun Mountain" by Emperor Taizong Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty. It has continued to this day, and it also has a long history of Taoist culture and has become a It is the holy land of the Quanzhen Sect and was named a "famous mountain in the world" in the Ming Dynasty. There is a saying that "there is Wudang Golden Summit in the south and Laojun Iron Summit in the north".

02 Laojun Mountain once charged fees according to surnames, and the "two major surnames" were directly free

So this area has now become a famous scenic spot in China, with 6 scenic spots set up. It encompasses Taiqing Palace and Shifangyuan. There are 179 attractions including Laojun Temple. Therefore, in order to attract tourists, this scenic spot once charged fees based on surnames. During the past publicity period, Laojun Mountain was very willful and charged fees based on surnames. In 2012, it was free for tourists surnamed Li. In 2013, it was free of charge for tourists with the surname Zhang. This was because the original name of the old man was Li Er, and the original name of the founder of Taoism was Zhang Daoling, so it was very arbitrary to provide free admission to these two surnames.

03 The two major surnames have a large population in the country, and tourists are calling for it to be held again

And such publicity undoubtedly has certain risks. After all, the surnames Li and Zhang in China are both common surnames. , the domestic population is tens of millions at least. If they all flock to Laojun Mountain, the scenic spot will be overcrowded. However, wealth can be found in danger, and the surname brought a lot of people to Laojun Mountain for free. Even now, there are many tourists who go there specifically to appreciate it.

However, this event has ended for a long time now, and many people miss when it will happen again. Therefore, some people have been leaving messages under the scenic spot calling for it to be held again. I wonder if you can get it for free if you are charged based on your last name again?
