In the promotion activities in Tianjin, the Philippine National Tourism Administration carefully arranged an experience corner full of tropical elements.

Since the fourth quarter of last year, China-Philippines relations have continued to develop and the number of direct flights has increased. China's outbound travel to the Philippines has seen a spurt of growth. At the same time, with the climax of the Miss Universe Competition in June, 20 17 and the successful holding of the China-ASEAN Tourism Cooperation Year in Manila, the trip to the Philippines has once again exploded, becoming a hot spot for China's outbound travel.

The relevant person in charge of the Beijing office of Philippine Tourism Bureau said that in the future, publicity will be intensified in second-and third-tier cities outside Beijing, and products and services will be continuously optimized to better meet the needs of China tourists and enhance their experience and satisfaction.
