Top free tourist attractions in China
















It has been said that admission fees to tourist attractions in China are the highest in the world but it's worth noting that some hotspots are free of charge, including West Lake, Jinji Lake, Juzizhou Islet, Phoenix city and North Sea Silver Beach.
1.West Lake, Hangzhou
This well-known scenic spot has been admission-free except for some temples since 2002. This year, eight more attractions have been added to the free list. If you are looking for a natural setting of peaks, serene forests, dense foliage and various blossoms, West Lake is a must-see retreat.
2. Jinji Lake Scenic Spot, Suzhou
Situated close to Suzhou Industrial District, Jinji Lake is a beautiful scenic spot, featuring a maple forest, music fountain, water screen movies all amid other natural and cultural settings. It is a good illustration of urban ecological preservation and leisure tourism.
3.Juzizhou Islet, Changzhou
Located in the central part of Xiangjiang River in south China, Juzizhou Islet is known all over China because of Mao Zedong's poem 'Qin Yuan Chun Changsha'. The islet is a picturesque park with beautiful pavilions and corridors. It has had free admission since April 2009.
4.The Old City of Phoenix
The old town of Phoenix is like an impressive community living on the banks of the Tuojiang River. The unique lifestyle has long fascinated visitors, as has the town's enchanting scenery and peaceful atmosphere. It's free to enter the old town but some cultural relic buildings and notable residents' homes still have admission charges.
5.Silver Beach ,Beihai
There are two things you must never miss in China's south Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region. One is Guilin's riverside scenery and the other is Beihai Silver Beach. Boasting one of the best stretches of white sand in the world, it is also a natural bathing spot. Whether enjoying the sunshine and waves or just playing in the sand, Beihai is an ideal getaway from the daily grind of life. Admission has been free since 2003.
