What Women Want
Who would've thought that China would be the place to create the ideal village for women travelers? The central Chinese municipality of Chongqing is converting the Shuangqiao district into "Woman Town," where women will make all the decisions and men who don't follow the rules will be punished (by having to kneel on an uneven board or wash the dishes).
The local tourism board says the 1.5 mile square Woman Town area will be especially attractive to female tourists:
In any tour group entering this town, female members would play the deciding role, concerning shopping and other items of the itinerary.
Great! No more boring war museums or staring at valuable cars. We can just shop, eat and let the men wash the dishes. Now that's what traveling should be about.
