The panda fans said the tour had enabled them to not only see the beautiful landscapes of Sichuan but also get a deeper understanding of Sichuan’s folk culture, promising to promote Sichuan’s tourism resources and distinctive culture through their respective platforms when back to their home countries.
A representative of the Chengdu branch of China Youth Travel Service, which worked with another local company to execute the tour, said, “We have prepared souvenirs with Sichuan’s distinctive features for the fans so that they can often think of this tour when back in their countries. I hope they can bring their families and friends here should the opportunity arise.”
The tour took participants on a journey back in time by?giving them the opportunity to?walk down the old streets and watch historical buildings to feel Sichuan’s history and ancient civilization. It also presented to them Sichuan’s vitality and robust development today.
