When is world tourism day?

World tourism day is on September 27th every year. Foreign tourists should respect the customs and habits of the host country, especially those with special religious customs, and avoid disputes caused by improper words and deeds. When encountering natural disasters such as earthquakes or political turmoil, wars, sudden terrorist incidents or accidental injuries, we should calmly respond, evacuate the dangerous area as soon as possible, and promptly report to the embassy or consulate of China in the host country or contact relevant domestic departments for rescue and protection.

The significance of determining world tourism day lies in: developing international and domestic tourism, promoting cultural, artistic and economic exchanges among countries, enhancing mutual understanding among people of all countries and promoting social progress. The World Tourism Organization puts forward a slogan every year, and tourism organizations all over the world carry out activities according to the slogan and requirements.

Since 1985, China has set up main venues in Beijing, Shanghai, Chongqing, Chengdu, Shenyang and other cities, and set up sub-venues throughout the country to hold activities to celebrate world tourism day. Carry out tourism publicity activities around the theme of tourism activities determined by the World Tourism Organization in that year.
