QINGDAO international tourist center recently enhanced cooperative relations with counterparts in Nanning in the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region in Southwest China by setting up a branch to promote travel packages.

It has also opened a bus route for tourists visiting Vietnam, the first of its kind in China. The route will also bring Vietnamese tourists to China.

At the Nanning branch, the tourist center promotes a six-day travel package to Laoshan Mountain and Vietnam. Early next year, Qingdao expects an increasing number of tourists from Vietnam. (Jane Lai, Song Xiu)
