The Mount Huashan scenic area in Northwest China's Shaanxi province reopened Saturday, said its management administration.

The scenic attraction, which was closed on Jan 24 due to the COVID-19 epidemic, will offer free admission for medical workers until the end of this year, the administration said.

To enhance the COVID-19 prevention and control efforts, the scenic area will offer an online ticket booking service for tourists and impose a daily maximum capacity of 6,000 visitors, according to its management administration.

Huashan is one of China's five most famous scenic mountains and is known for its steep and perilous peaks.
