Tibet’s tourism revenue up 47 percent in Q1
    2018-05-14  08:53    Shenzhen Daily

FROM January to March, Tibet welcomed 1.06 million tourists, up 49.5 percent from a year ago. Total tourism revenue also rose 47 percent to 1.26 billion yuan (US$198 million), according to the regional Tourism Development Commission on Sunday.

Tourism had been slack in winter in Tibet due to frigid weather on its highlands. In January this year, the regional government published a series of preferential policies including hotel and ticket discounts, and charter flight and train services to lure domestic and overseas tourists.

Tickets to the Potala Palace were hard to get in March, and in the Basum Lake scenic area, another major tourist attraction, tourist arrivals grow by a factor of six in the first quarter.

The local government has decided to continue some of the winter tourism incentives until June to attracts more tourists. (Xinhua)
