First Silk Road Intl Tourism Expo ends with huge praise from all walks of life

UN Tourism Organization: The Silk Road International Tourism Expo is full of energy and very successful

Holding this Silk Road Expo in Xi’an, the starting point of the Silk Road, could greatly promote Xi’an and the Silk Road as a brand of the world. It is our hope that the Provincial Tourism Administration of Shaanxi will invite more travel businesspeople to come to establish relationships and create more opportunities to cooperate on international tourism along the Silk Road, especially in such respects as marketing and tourism designation management.

India: The Silk Road International Tourism Expo is an important platform for promoting Sino-Indian tourism exchanges

It’s the first time for India to participate in a tourism exhibition in Xi’an, and over the past few days, the exhibition area have received a great many tourism experts and ordinary visitors who came to make inquiries and have business negotiations. India's abundant tourism resources have been well publicized and promoted here, and the Silk Road International Tourism Expo will become an important platform for facilitating exchanges between the Chinese and Indian tourism industries.

Indonesia: Silk Road International Tourism Expo will boost the mutual understanding between the two countries

At this expo, the Indonesian delegation includes not only personnel from governmental agencies, but also both Indonesian and Chinese travel agencies. By joining every department together to present a single face to the Chinese spectators, we hope to further strengthen both sides’ understanding and cooperation.

South Korea: Promote travel in South Korea through activities aimed at letting people have a certain experience

South Korea has a long history of communicating with China. Its screen culture has exerted a positive influence on China. Its tourism authorities have specially invited the film and television star Gianna Jun as a tourism ambassador to give publicity to Korean tourism. It is our hope that through this Silk Road International Tourism Expo we will be able to introduce South Korea's abundant tourism resources to China, and invite more and more Chinese people to travel in South Korea.

Finnair: Gather customer sources through the expo

The Silk Road International Tourism Expo is the first international tourism event held in Shaanxi Province. It is an important step in Shaanxi tourism's effort to go international. Finnair provides the shortest air routes linking more than 60 destinations in Asian metropolises and Europe together by making use of the unique geographical advantages of Helsinki Airport, as well as an important means of transportation for tourists traveling to and from Shaanxi Province.

It is our hope that Shaanxi will be able to introduce its tourism to the world by means of this expo, making Xi’an a major hub where tourists from Northwest China and from around the world gather.
