How to punish travel agencies for selling private scenic spots as tourism products?

Travel agencies will be punished if they sell or recommend private "scenic spots" as tourism products. Specific penalties may include, but are not limited to, fines, revocation of business licenses, and restrictions on business scope.

In order to standardize the order of the tourism market, protect the ecological environment and safeguard the rights and interests of tourists, the Ministry of Culture and Tourism issued the Work Plan for Special Renovation of Privately-established Scenic Spots. In this plan, the Ministry of Culture and Tourism requires travel agents, online travel companies and other tourism operators not to sell or recommend private "scenic spots" as tourism products. For those who set up "scenic spots" without permission, the relevant departments will conduct a comprehensive investigation and rectification, and deal with them according to the "Measures for the Investigation of Unlicensed and Unlicensed Business" and other relevant laws and regulations. At the same time, all localities need to check the special rectification work step by step to ensure that the requirements of the rectification work can be implemented.
