Tibet to develop new theme park attraction
Hong Xu, Shanghai, August 3, 2012
 

A LARGE theme park that will showcase live performances of Princess Wen Cheng is being constructed on the outskirts of Lhasa, the capital of Tibet.

 

Adopting a theme based on Princess Wencheng, the niece of a Tang Dynasty emperor who married a Tibetan King to establish peace between the two nations, the attraction will form part of the Tibet state government’s China Tibet Culture & Tourism Creative Park.

 

Occupying an area of 8.11 km2, the entire development will comprise several themed districts, and is scheduled for completion within five years.

 

So far, 13 companies have come forward to contribute one-third of the RMB 30 billion (US$4.7 billion) needed to fund its construction.
