Although the closely related issue of tourism and environment attracted the attention of the tourism industry as early as the early 1970s, the concept of "eco-tourism" was introduced to China through foreign countries and gradually accepted. Until1September, 1993, the "First Congress of National Parks and Nature Reserves in East Asia" was held in Beijing, and the document "Outline of Action Plan of East Asian Protected Areas" was adopted, which marked the first time that the concept of ecotourism was confirmed in the form of a document in China. 1995, "The First Ecotourism Seminar in China" was held in Xishuangbanna.
