The seminar was attended by 35 representatives from the Provincial Tourism Department, the tourism departments of main cities and prefectures in Yunnan, and tourism companies targeting international tourists.
The project has laid a sound basis to develop attractive packages and further promote the diverse tourism products of Yunnan Province to the international market, with a view to enhance international tourism’s contribution to the local economy.
