The new European countries added to the list of short visa-free stays of up to 15 days in China include Cyprus, Denmark, Greece, and Slovenia. China’s visa-free policy extends to other European countries including Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Spain, and Switzerland. The visa-free scheme will remain in effect until the end of 2025.
Apart from the visa-free scheme, the Chinese government plans to encourage inbound tourism by strategic collaboration with companies to promote its cultural and historical attractions.
China is one of Asia’s most-visited countries, attracting travellers for both tourism and business. As the country continues to recover from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, its efforts to attract international visitors are expected to contribute to a resurgence in tourism and economic growth.
Some of the most popular places to visit in China include The Great Wall of China, the Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding, The Forbidden City and Imperial Palace in Beijing, The Terracotta Army in Xi’an, The West Lake in Hangzhou, The Mausoleum of Light at Shenyang, and the Leshan Giant Buddha in Sichuan.
