Beijing grass always greener underfoot

The 9,600 square meters of lawns beside the Tiananmen Square will reportedly get new grass. The news reminded me a picture online with a caption saying that some tourists disregard the signs reading "keep off the grass" and traipse across the lawns beside the square.

To keep off the grass has long been a social code. But still some people cannot resist the temptation of the soft grass. We cannot place all the blame on them.
