The Chinese travel and tourism economy grew 9.9% last year, more than twice the global rate and much faster than the 0.9% pace registered by the US, according to new data by the World Travel & Tourism Council, a trade group, and lead research partner Chase Travel.
I fail to see what this has to do with visiting a couple of cities for a week or two as a tourist. If your argument is that a person cannot come from a country that has more rights or better wealth than another country, the dynamics to visiting anywhere get really weird.
I live near China but don’t go there because I don’t like the government. However, I’d love to see many archeological sites like Xi An and other places.
Xi’an is cool. Really good food, especially if you get tired of pork.
