There's a pig theme park in China and people are paying $1,200 a night for a hotel room so they may see — but not smell — the piggery

Although the room costs 8,888 yuan a night, it appears that most of the cost goes to paying for the prized black-and-white colored hogs — which, like the giant panda, is a rare breed, per China News Service.

Guests can get a panda pig or a year's worth of express-couriered pork upon checkout. Each pig would be able to produce ham that costs more than 6,000 yuan — accounting for more than 70% of the price of the room each night, per China News Service.

Pigs here are treated"with respect" in an environment surrounded by flowers — so visitors will not be greeted by any foul odors, per the state news agency. Sign up for notifications from Insider! Stay up to date with what you want to know.
