All major Chinese New Year celebrations and large-scale activities in Beijing as well as two Chinese New Year events in Hong Kong have been canceled.
All major Chinese New Year events have been canceled in Beijing from Thursday, along with all other large-scale activities, including temple fairs, in a bid to prevent the spread of the coronavirus. Several major tourist attractions and public venues have also been temporarily closed, the city's tourism bureau reports.
The Spring Festival fairs in Beijing's Ditan Park and Longtan Park, both of which are annual celebrations for Chinese New Year, have been canceled, while several main tourist sites including the Forbidden City complex have been temporarily shut down. Visitors who have already booked tickets to the museum will be refunded online, the tourism website said.
Shanghai's Disney Resort, which had several Chinese New Year-themed events planned at its parks to celebrate the holiday, including a special fireworks display, announced closures on Friday due to the virus. "Do not travel to Hubei province, China due to novel coronavirus first identified in Wuhan, China," the department warns on its official website.
