北京故宫博物院正在考虑用网上购票系统取代传统景点窗口购票的方式

Shan Jixiang, chief curator, mentioned the planwhen reviewing administrative experience gainedduring the National Day holiday.

故宫博物院院长单霁翔，通过总结和回顾国庆假期的管理经验中，提出了这个计划设想

Administrators set the cap of daily visitors at 80,000during the week-long holiday starting from October 1. Shan said most had booked their tripsonline in advance, which encourages digital ticketing in future.

从10月1日开始的黄金周假期，故宫管理方面规定，每天游览的访问人数上限为8万人。单霁翔表示，多数游客提前预定了他们的行程，这给未来的电子票务时代带来了促进作用

However, the idea has failed to win unanimous support. A Miss Gao, in her 20s, welcomes theeffort- and time-saving measure, though some others say the plan lacks consideration forthose not tech-savvy enough or without access to computers.

20岁的高女士表示，她乐于接受这项节省时间的措施。然而，这个提议未能赢得所有人一致的支持。一些游客就表示，这项措施并没有考虑到那些对高科技不太了解、或者是无法使用电脑的人们的需求和感受。

Liu Simin, Deputy Secretary-General of Beijing Tourism Association, says the plan could boostdigital tourism, though it's still too early to cut offline ticketing services.

北京旅游学会副秘书长刘思敏对此表示，这个想法虽然可以加速数码旅游时代的到来，但对于取消线下售票来说还是为时过早。
