Garbage for tickets

The vast amount of garbage that accumulates with large crowds is a huge headache for scenic spots, especially during the public holidays. It is not easy to clean up after so many people. So why not set them up to clean up after themselves?

In order to overcome the problem, a canyon in Enshi, Hubei province decided to hand out free plastic bags with cute patterns printed on them, so tourists can collect a kilogram of garbage in exchange for a free ticket to their live show. The scheme was well-received and successful.
