"With the upcoming Spring Festival, the first Yuanmingyuan Park (Old Summer Palace) royal temple fair will take place in the park. Fun activities and performances, including prayers by the royal family and the palace cockfighting, will be held."

How could this piece of news be true, if you know Yuanmingyuan is a place symbolizing national humiliation and grief? I guess it's for the sake of money. Sure it is. This temple fair is sponsored by a company in cooperation with some government department, because they believe "cultural heritage is an important business resource".

In recent years, a shortage of funds for heritage preservation and low salaries for the workers have become reasons for raising ticket prices at ancient cultural sites. Yuanmingyuan is a symbol of humiliation since it was ruined 150 years ago. Such humiliation always urges us to work hard and reinvigorate our nation.
