From April 25, Beijing's famous scenic spot, Nanluoguxiang, will suspend its reception of tourist groups because the number of daily visitors is far exceeding the capacity of the site, Beijing Youth Daily reported on Friday.

Meanwhile, also in consideration of crowd control, Nanluoguxiang will no longer be included on the list of 3A-level scenic spots, according to the city's tourism bureau.

Statistics show that daily visitors to Nanluoguxiang often exceed 30,000; on weekends, the number is often above 50,000, and it climbs to more than 100,000 on holidays. The overcapacity has greatly impacted the neighborhoods and living environment of local residents. It has also caused damage to the facilities.

Nanluoguxiang is a well-preserved, ancient part of Beijing featuring traditional architecture. It is located on the east side of Beijing's central axis and is approximately 800 meters long, running from East Gulou Street to East Di'anmen Street.
