Residents of a scenic village in Austria are said to be concerned about plans to produce a replica of their area in China.

Hallstatt, in the Austrian Alps, is a major tourist attraction and a Unesco World Heritage Site.

It has been revealed that a Chinese corporation has designed an exact copy that is being built in the north of Hong Kong.
