Beijing issues ban on private clubs in parks
Print Edition
BEIJING has outlawed private clubs in city parks as part of the latest effort to crack down on hedonism and extravagance among officials.
Private clubs using public resources such as pavilions, towers and aisles will be banned across the city’s 300-plus parks from January 10, according to a recently published guideline.
Anger has been rising against the clubs, which are often illicitly built with public resources, sometimes in historical buildings or parks, and visited by the powerful and rich.
Private clubs are defined as high-end restaurants, gyms, beauty parlors, hotels and other such venues built on public resources inside parks.
Renovation or reconstruction of old buildings in parks cannot be done without government permission, and new buildings can only be constructed with official approval.
The decree also bans billboards such as “tourists not allowed” and “no entry” in the parks.
The guideline is Beijing’s answer to an October decree by China’s central authority that prohibits private clubs in historical buildings, parks and other public facilities.
