Destinations around the world have faced significant tourist reductions amid the coronavirus pandemic. But few have taken a harder    1    than Bali, the Indonesian island long beloved of global travelers. Due to strict     2    control measures and a closed airport, Bali went from receiving millions of international visitors to welcoming just 45 in 2021. The two-digit number accounts for the period between January and October 2021 and was    3    by the Central Statistics Bureau of Bali.

As the island's Ngurah Rai International Airport（DPS）in Denpasar has been closed to international flights nearly all year, those tourists have almost all come via private yachts. Though the airport officially reopened to international flights on October 14, there have so far only been domestic flights in and out of the airport,    4    from Indonesia's capital city of Jakarta.

In order to come to Bali, foreign tourists have to deal with strict Covid-related entry requirements. They must obtain a business visa at a cost of $300（there are no tourist visas at present）, take multiple PCR tests and buy special health     5    . In addition, airfare costs are higher than usual due to the lack of direct flights.

One hopeful visitor is Justyna Wrucha, a UK citizen planning a trip to Bali with her husband. It will be their first visit to the island, which has long been on their bucket list. However, they think that the policies relating to foreign visitors are extremely harsh by    6    a 10-day quarantine on fully    7    people.

Bali's Covid policies are determined by the central government in Jakarta, not by local authorities on the island. Originally, the quarantines were shorter but were recently increased due to fears of the new Omicron    8    . Ray Suryawijaya, head of the Indonesian Hotels and Restaurants Association of Bali's Badung District, agrees with Wrucha. "With all those barriers, it's difficult for us to expect foreign tourists to come to Bali," he said.

However, there is one small glimmer of hope with the gradual return of domestic tourism. Ray reports that the    9    rate of hotels in Bali is now around 35%. "On weekends, about 13,000 domestic tourists are visiting Bali," he adds. While that small trickle of visitors is an    10    note to end the year on, especially for the many Balinese locals who depend on tourism to support their families, it won't be enough to rescue the 2021 season.

This past National Day holiday saw upwards of half a billion Chinese citizens travelling. While some flew off to international destinations, the     1     majority enjoyed the many tourist sites that China has to offer. If you were one of those people who decided to explore China’s scenic spots, you probably realized that it isn’t just the mountain steps that are steep-the entrance fees are, too!

The average cost of the highest     2    5A attractions is 109 yuan. This could prove to be a little too steep for some families, who find themselves spending too large a portion of their holiday budget on admission tickets. The 32 5A locations that upped their prices in the past five years experienced an average     3     of over 40 percent. The bad news is that these prices are expected to continue to rise. So how does China’s situation compare to other parts of the world? The average fees for cultural and historical sites seem to be on par with(与…同价) international     4    . It’s quite another story, however, when you compare natural wonders. For example, the cost of a ticket to Zhangjiajie National Forest Park(张家界国家森林公园) hovers around 245 yuan for a three-day tour. This seems    5     high when you consider that a week long pass to America’s Yellowstone National Park (黄石国家公园)is a mere 74 yuan. There are     6     benefits to increased revenue(收益) from ticket sales, which support necessary     7     , maintenance and operation costs. This is especially important for sites that must keep visitor numbers down in order to protect the natural environment. However, it must also be     8     that many of China’s tourist attractions are operated by private companies who are ultimately protecting their bottomline(盈亏底线).

While the government has put some     9     in place, such as only allowing entrance fees to be raised once every three years, they have not     10     the upper limit of ticket prices and increases. Further measures to settle the dispute are being considered. In the meantime, some families are forced to re-think if some attractions are really worth the costs.
