Joint tourism network launched
3/3/2004 17:26
The Nanjing passenger transport tourism center was launched this
month. It is based on a network trade platform, and linked with the Shanghai and
Hangzhou tourism gathering centers, enabling the three cities to share the same
ticket-selling system, the Jiefang Daily reported today.
The linked network
enables tourism enterprises in the three cities to share customer resources and
cut operational costs, and helps travelers save costs, said an industry analyst.
However, to date, they can only share the ticket-selling system, the analyst
pointed out, adding that more cooperation is expected in the near future.
In
May this year, Shanghai will also cooperate with Hangzhou and Nanjing to offer
new tourism promotions for travelers to tour Jiangsu Province, Zhejiang Province
and Shanghai, indicating that a joint tourism program in the Yangtze River Delta
region will kick off soon, he stressed.
As of next year, Shanghai, Hangzhou
and Nanjing will each offer preferential tourism products so that local
residents can enjoy the tourism benefits provided by the other two cities, he
added.
