Neverland replica planned near Shanghai

SHANGHAI - A group of businessmen are proposing to build a replica of Michael Jackson's Neverland Ranch on an island north of Shanghai as a tribute to the late singer.

AFP says the replica would be the centerpiece of an agricultural sightseeing park where visitors will be able to sample rural cuisine and listen to Chinese folk music performances.

''We believe the farmland, without the Neverland Ranch, would be too plain,'' said Qiu Xuefan, a chamber of commerce representative from Wenzhou.

''We think it would be a good idea to build a place for Chinese fans to remember him (Jackson).''
