Feb 04, 2009 By eChinacities.com

The government plans to rebuild or restore 12 churches, mosques and temples in Beijing. The move is aimed at giving Christians, both Catholics and Protestant, as well as Muslims, Buddhists and Daoists better access to places of worship. The foundation for the project on which the Beijing municipal government will spend 12 million Yuan ($1.75 million), was laid out in Changxindian in southwest Beijing recently.
More churches are on the restoration and rebuilding agenda ... they include the Zhengfu Church and the Pingfang Church in Haidian and Chaoyang districts.
