The 8th East Asia International Travel Fair - Dalian, China.



With the overall upward situation of the Chinese economy, China's tourism industry has been growing. According to statistics of the National Tourism Administration, in 2010, China domestic tourists made 2.1 billion trips, a rise of 11%. China inbound traveler numbers grew by 19.2% to 52.11 million person/times compared to 2009. There have been 140 travel destinations open to travelers. Currently China is the fourth largest inbound travel reception country in the world.

Under the background of China’s emphasis on Bohai rim area, the State Council designated the development plan for the coastal area of Liaoning province as a state-level one. Thanks to those policies along with rich tourism resources, a favourite geographic location and a good traffic situation, Dalian, Wehai and other coastal cities will be given more opportunities for the growth of tourism. The Northeast China and Bohai rim area have become a fast growing tourist area with great potential, which has obtained world-wide attention from overseas countries..

The 8th East Asia International Travel Fair (EAITF) will be held on October 14th-16th 2011 at the Dalian Star-Sea Convention & Exhibition Center, in the Shahekou District, Dalian, Liaoning Province, China.
