Beijing New World Department Store has spent 400 thousand yuan (US$51 thousand) to build a huge Christmas tree. The tree is 28 meters high and 16 meters in diameters, making the highest Christmas tree . It is also a good opportunity for hotels and restaurants here to make more money. They have been preparing various activites for this holiday since last May, and now they endeavor to promote their extravagant1 Christmas meals. The average price for such a meal will be 1,000 yuan ($127.5), and the most luxurious2 one even 3,688 yuan ($470.2), to be provided by Beijing Landmarks3 Towers.
