China has rich natural and cultural resources in tourism industry. With China's further opening up to outside world and the growing improvement of its tour facility, China will have a increasingly status in the world tourism industry, according to the envoy.

He also said the successful holding of the 2008 Olympics in Beijing had greatly enhanced China's reputation. He suggested that on one hand, China could further develop its Olympic brand to increase the influence of its tourism industry, on the other hand China should create tourism brands in various aspects.
