Recently, people have frequently seen foreign friends sharing wonderful clips of "China Travel" on social media, and residents in many places have also found that there are obviously more foreign tourists on the streets and alleys.

Walking in Zhangjiajie, Hunan, he praised "This is a fairyland on earth created by only God." I experienced Harbin’s passion and sighed that “it’s not an exaggeration to recommend it.” After visiting the night market for the first time, I was amazed at the bustling and safe nightlife. Drink a cup of coffee delivered by drones in a park in Shenzhen and shout "Cheers to the future." The feelings of foreign tourists are unique and touching.

Thanks to the continuous optimization of visa policies, "China Travel" has continued to heat up in the past year. Data shows that in 2024, 20.115 million foreigners were allowed to enter the country without visa, an increase of 112.3% year-on-year. Why do foreign tourists favor China?

The answer lies in their intercourse praise and active sharing. "Good-looking", "delicious", "entertainment", "safe", "convenient"... These high-frequency adjectives reflect a prosperous, open and inclusive new era China from different aspects.

Today's China has both the excellent traditional Chinese culture with a long history and the efficient and convenient modern technology; it has unique natural resources and the hospitality and simple people; it has both busy and compact development pace and meticulous and thoughtful security guarantees. Chinese-style modernization has produced fruitful results, not only benefiting the people, but also allowing "Chinese travel" to continue to release its charm.

"It's great to have friends coming from afar." Nothing can enhance understanding and mutual trust more than real interactions in life, and nothing can make people feel a credible, lovely and respectable China more intuitively than travel. When traveling to China changes from "short viewing" to "in-depth experience", it should be only a matter of time before falling in love with China.

For foreign tourists, this is a veritable "trip to discover". It is discovered that China not only needs to cross oceans and seas, but also needs to break through the "information cocoon" and transcend misunderstandings and prejudice. When we come to China, experience China, and then get to know China, and love China, many foreign tourists say, "China is not like we were told." A rich and profound personal experience can eliminate distortion and misleading.

For the Chinese people, this is also an opportunity for self-examination. People often say that there is no scenery nearby. From the eyes of foreign tourists, we will suddenly realize that many of the "accustomed" in life are actually "common". In the mutual "comparison" and "reconciliation", we have more calmness, confidence, and pride.

Running to China in both directions, mutual achievements. In 2024, a foreign cruise ship company further expanded its business in China because they believe that "it is an excellent time to invest in the Chinese tourism market." With an open and inclusive cultural atmosphere, a vibrant and huge market, and a stable and harmonious social environment, China today is an ideal place to do things and start businesses.

In the long history of humanity, the encounter between civilization and civilization has left behind many good stories and legends. Tourism is the carrier of culture and a way of cultural acquisition. People of all countries meet on their journey and learn from each other through exchanges. The garden of world civilization will be more colorful and endless.
