For about 120 dollars, visitors to China’s Great Wall can now leave their mark on a fake (仿造) wall built recently in the name of preventing graffiti (乱画) on the real structure.
The management office of the Juyongguan section of the Great Wall in Beijing built the fake wall and will charge 999 yuan for carvings on each brick, daily newspaper The First reported.
  With 9,999 bricks available, the marble structure could help management earn 9.9 million yuan. Juyongguan’s management said they were hoping to satisfy visitor’s desire to leave something behind—usually their name or words of love—while discouraging them form caving graffiti on China’s best-known cultural relic.
The Great Wall, which receives four million visitors a year, has suffered greatly from graffiti. But the project has come under some criticism with The First citing (引用) one expert as saying many schemes to ‘protect’ the wall are actually aimed at getting profits from the cultural treasure.
The fake wall is located near the most-visited section of the real wall in Badaling and visitors usually travel to Juyongguan on their way to Badaling.
