在这个风起云涌的时代，新冠病毒肺炎疫情依旧未曾完全消散，它像一只无形的手，紧紧抓住了我们的每一个瞬间。全国各地的人们都在努力加强防疫措施，不懈前行，以确保我们能够赢得这场没有硝烟的战争。在这个过程中，每天确诊和疑似病例数量的变化，都成为了我们关注的话题。内外防线不断加固，我们要面对的是反弹风险和输入风险的双重挑战。

"民声君"注意到，在社交媒体上 lately, many netizens who are in Beijing have been sharing their concerns about a group of people who seem to be organizing parties at a popular tourist spot called "鬼笑石" in the West Mountain. The videos circulating online show young people gathering and having fun without wearing masks properly, which has sparked widespread concern among the public. Many have criticized these individuals for disregarding safety protocols.

In response to this situation, the Beijing West Mountain National Forest Park has decided to close the "鬼笑石" area starting from May 16th, as per the requirements of local epidemic prevention and control work. This measure aims to ensure the health and safety of visitors while minimizing risks associated with large gatherings.

The closed "鬼笑石" is a notable stone located in the southeastern part of Ghostly Gaze Hill. It is said that when wind blows through it, it produces an eerie sound similar to howling or crying ghosts, hence its name.

The Beijing West Mountain National Forest Park covers an area of 5970 hectares across three districts: Haidian, Shijingshan and Mentougou. With elevations ranging from 300-400 meters above sea level and a forest coverage rate of 98.5%, it primarily features summer green broad-leaved forests as its main attraction sites include Capital Green Cultural Monument (Baocheng Scenic Area) and Changhua Scenic Area.

It's worth mentioning that this park is one of those closest to downtown Beijing. We apologize for any inconvenience caused by this temporary closure and hope you understand our efforts in keeping everyone safe during these challenging times.
