From only 300 000 in 1978, the number of foreign tourists (tourists) to China increased to 22 million in 2006, not including foreign tourists visiting Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan, according to China National Tourism Agency (CNTA).
“China has now become the main attraction for tourists worldwide,” said Vice President of CNTA, Wang Zhifa, in the forum of the tourism industry in China recently.

WTO Representative for Asia Pacific, Xu Jing, said China is estimated to be past the third ranked tourist destinations of the world, the U.S., this year, and then through the second ranked Spain at the end of this decade.
