BEIJING — China is reportedly planning to build its own version of Michael Jackson’s Neverland Ranch on an island near Shanghai.
The Shanghai Morning Post says the first phase of the project on Chongming Island will be completed within a year and will cover 667,000 square metres.
Named after the home of Peter Pan, Neverland Ranch was Jackson’s whimsical retreat — replete with carnival rides, a coterie of animals, two trains and a Disney-like station.
The total cost of China’s version is expected to be around 100 million yuan (US$14.6 million).
Citing Qiu Xuefan, vice director of the Wenzhou Chamber of Commerce, The Shanghai Morning Post said the tribute to Jackson, who died June 25, will include a man-made lake, cinema and a zoo.
Jackson memorabilia — bought by auction and other “private channels” — will be on display.
Neverland was valued at $33 million in 2006, according to an accounting firm’s report from 2007.
Chongming Island is in the Yangtze river to the north of Shanghai.
