Wuhan University has been criticized for doubling the entrance fee to its famous cherry blossom garden on the campus, which will be in full bloom in mid-March. From Wednesday, the school will charge 20 yuan ($3.20) admission. The price increase has aroused some critics who suggested the school is making money in the name of limiting tourists to maintain the school's teaching and study routine. Last year, the university received a record-high of 200,000 tourists a day.
