点评:Unfortunately on Wednesday morning March 25th we 2 fit females in our fifties) had a poor experience on trying to enter the park. We were asked by the man attendant to show the soles of our runners ( On clouds and ASICS) and told we were not permitted to enter as our footwear was not appropriate. This would have been acceptable had others been stopped with similar footwear …. This was not the case. We watched as other tourists entered the park , no problem admitting any man who went down or couple the majority in runners. I did ask initially if it was due to our age !!
My friend went down to the entrance point some time later when a lady wearing the exact same ASICS runners was permitted. The man screamed at her and lost his cool completely , leaving her upset. Ageism and sexism at its best. We have no problem following rules but this was plain discrimination .

过了一会儿,我的朋友来到入口处,看到一位穿着同样ASICS运动鞋的女士被允许入内。那位男士对她大吼大叫,完全失去了理智,让她非常难过。这简直是年龄歧视和性别歧视的极致体现。我们一直都遵守规则,但这显然是歧视。
